One of the most important position battles on the roster for the Pittsburgh Steelers in the preseason is starting to heat up.
That would be the slot cornerback battle between veteran Chandon Sullivan and second-year pro Elijah Riley. Both had interceptions on Saturday night at Acrisure Stadium against the Buffalo Bills, and both continue to make strong cases for a spot on the 53-man roster, making it rather difficult for the coaches to make a decision at the spot.
When it comes to the slot cornerback job, the belief is that there will be one winner earning a roster spot.
