The Steelers kick off training camp next week with a host of storylines to follow. While much attention has been given to the changes on offense, from the elevation of Matt Canada to coordinator to the drafting of running back Najee Harris to the reshuffling of the offensive line, one of the most important developments is on the other side of the football.
Linebacker Devin Bush’s return from last season’s knee injury is a huge plus for Keith Butler’s unit. The defense is simply better when Bush is on the field. They play faster, rush the quarterback better, are better in coverage and are tougher against the run.
