Arguably the best player on the field on either side of the ball last night was Stephon Tuitt for the Pittsburgh Steelers, which for many will be greeted as a welcomed and long-awaited sign. The 2014 second-round pick is among the highest-paid players on the entire roster, but he hasn’t quite put up the statistical production to match it.
Tuitt did produce the second-best sack total of his career last season with five and a half, but that only placed third among defensive linemen, and was tied for fourth with Bud Dupree on the defense.
