The Steelers may have found a gem after trading up for Devin Bush. Here’s how Bush outperformed other high-profile linebackers in 2019.

Depending on who you talk to, Devin Bush either impressed as a rookie or really struggled in year one. I can see it both ways. The Steelers rookie linebacker in 2019 surrendered 5 touchdowns in coverage and allowed a 97.4 passer rating, according to Pro Football Reference. However, he also intercepted the ball twice, forced one fumble, and recovered four others.
