After a dismal defensive start to the season in which the Steelers gave up more than 28 points per game over their first three contests, things have since turned around drastically. Pittsburgh’s defense looks like a completely different unit – allowing just 15 points per game over their last three matchups.
Minkah Fitzpatrick is proving to be a welcome addition at free safety, and Devin Bush seems to be progressing at a remarkable rate. Bush has already been credited with 6 takeaways and a defensive touchdown in 6 games this season.
But for all of the contributions we have seen from young players on the Steelers defense, Terrell Edmunds really hasn’t been one of the defenders making waves.
