In an effort to address their defensive line, the Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Keeanu Benton out of Wisconsin in 2023. He logged a lot of snaps as a rookie, but one area that was lacking was ‘splash plays.’ He only had one sack and one tackle for a loss. He knows that the coaching staff is expecting more out of him in 2024, and he expects the same.
The question then becomes, what does Benton need to do to improve and meet (or exceed) those expectations?
“Finishing my plays,” Benton said after Tuesday’s OTAs, per a video from Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
