Steelers News: Rookie Linebackers, Defensive Tackles, Cornerbacks Can Shine In Week 2 Preseason Vs. Eagles
In preparation for Thursday’s Week 2 preseason matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has already opted to sit his leading offensive stars for the second straight game and continues to deal with injuries that have opened up opportunities for several young players on both sides of the ball.
Pittsburgh is coming off a 30-17 loss to the Detroit Lions, who netted 379 total offensive yards and fired off 17 second-half points while the Steelers offense sputtered for 187 yards largely against the Lions second and third-string defense.
