‘They Made Adjustments, We Did Not:’ Steelers’ DeShon Elliott Doubles Down On Defensive Critique

After the Pittsburgh Steelers’ third-straight trouncing that’s sending them into a spiral ahead of the playoffs, no one was louder post-game than SS DeShon Elliott. A key free agent addition whose return from a hamstring injury was highlighted as a reason to believe in the Steelers’ defense, the same issue that crept up without him remained with him in the lineup. After calling out the defense with choice post-game words, he seemed to take closer aim at the coaching staff.

“They did what they’re supposed to do. They made adjustments…We did not,” Elliott told reporter postgame via the KDKA Steelers’ Extra Point show.
