As the Steelers are seemingly rotating starters at inside linebacker with Devin Bush, Myles Jack and Robert Spillane all getting first-team reps, Mike Tomlin offered some insight at his press conference as to what Spillane brings to the table, per the team’s website.
“I’m really just focusing on getting him better,” Tomlin said. “It’s been a nice maturation process for him. He asks good questions. He’s a football guy, he’s a junkie. You’re starting to see that turn up in his play. And I think that’s a reasonable expectation for a guy that has that attention to detail and that passion for the game.
