I don’t remember the last time Steelers fans have been so excited to watch a former undrafted player in the preseason, but Ola Adeniyi has given us reason for hope.
Last year, Adeniyi came in as a long-shot to land on Pittsburgh’s roster. However, a dominant 2018 preseason showing that included 3.0 sacks and 2 forced fumbles had Ola turning heads.
Adeniyi was solid in his first preseason game of 2019, as he consistently pressured the quarterback. Unfortunately, the 21-year old outside linebacker isn’t going to suit up for Saturday night’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs, and his immediate future is now in jeopardy.
