New Pittsburgh Steelers inside linebacker Joe Schobert practiced for the first time with his newest team on Sunday and according to multiple reports, he was inserted right in with the first-string unit. Schobert, who now seems destined to be the Steelers quarterback of the defense in 2021, now has the chore of learning the entire playbook and calls by the start of the regular season. While that would seem to be a daunting challenge, the Wisconsin product is pretty used to learning new schemes since entering the NFL in 2016
“This’ll be my sixth scheme in six years now learning,” Schobert said after Sunday’s training camp practice.
