Pittsburgh Steelers fans are excited about Payton Wilson, but their dynamic duo at linebacker is Patrick Queen and Elandon Roberts. Veteran free agents signed over the past two offseasons, they formed a fast bond as the nucleus of this defense.
After years of misfires and misfortunes, the Steelers hope they finally have a stable inside linebacker room. While Payton Wilson waits his turn, both Roberts and Queen represent established, proven veterans. All they have to do, one hopes, is stay healthy, and they will set the tone for the team. Earlier this week, Queen discussed his bond with Roberts.
