While it’s still a little bit too early to write the Pittsburgh Steelers depth chart in pen as we sit here in May, we are already starting to get a glimpse as to how a few things might shake out in the secondary now that cornerback Ike Taylor has retired and Cortez Allen is back healthy.
After the Steelers first OTA practice of 2015, Allen talked about where he played in the base and nickel defenses respectively.
“First (team). Left (cornerback) and then when we go nickel Antwan (Blake) comes in and I go (to) right (cornerback) because he’s more comfortable that way,” said Allen, who was limited to just 11 games last season due to poor play and injuries.
