Continuing a series started last summer highlighting training camp battles at specific positions on the Pittsburgh Steelers roster as two players battle for the final roster spot on the depth chart. Today, we examine the outside linebacker battle between Jeremiah Moon and Kyron Johnson.
Our very own Alex Kozora highlighted the position battle between OLBs Jeremiah Moon and Kyron Johnson as one that has yet to be decided as the team concludes training camp practices at Saint Vincent College out in Latrobe, PA, transitioning back to their facilities in Pittsburgh. It looked like neither had a real shot of making the 53-man roster when the team signed OLB Markus Golden as they dealt with injuries to the position, but Golden decided to retire last week, opening the door for one of Johnson or Moon to win the OLB4 job in Pittsburgh.
