Charlotte HC Will Healy Would Bet On New Steelers OLB Alex Highsmith: ‘That Dude’s Got It’

The week after every NFL draft has taken place you usually hear quite a few college coaches do several interviews in which they are asked to talk about players from their respective programs that were selected. Such interviews are already happening this year and on Tuesday it was Charlotte head coach Will Healy who was asked to discuss one of his former players, edge-rusher Alex Highsmith, the Pittsburgh Steelers third-round draft pick this year, during his appearance on 93.7 The Fan. Right out of the chute, Healy was asked to comment on if he feels Highsmith has an opportunity to really make a difference down the road or maybe even initially for the Steelers because of the style and scheme of the defense they play.
