The Steelers’ Punter Problem Was Self-Inflicted

The Pittsburgh Steelers had apparently learned from past mistakes when it came to their kicking specialists. For several seasons they chose to not bring in any kicking competition when Shaun Suisham was there and when he went down in early August a few years back it created a chain reaction of problems. So fast forward to the punting situation of 2018. The Steelers brought in competition for Jordan Berry in the form of Matt Wile. Somehow, some way, Berry kept his job and I think I know why.

After two weeks of NFL action Jordan Berry trails the Vikings’ Matt Wile in pretty much every important punting category.
