Versatility The Biggest Selling Point For Why Steelers Signed Morgan Burnett

Kevin Colbert spoke to the media Sunday morning and went through several topics, including the rationale to sign safety Morgan Burnett. For Colbert, it came down to a pair of reasons: versatility and experience. From Steelers.com’s Missi Matthews.

Colbert on Morgan Burnett: “Versatility obviously, experience. Those were the two main issues because we can take a guy like Burnett and insert him into the defense with Sean Davis. I think there’s versatility in Sean as well.”

That last part about Davis’ versatility could be another signal of him moving to free safety, which has been reported throughout the offseason.
