We liked Reggie Gilbert last year. We like him even more this year.
Gilbert has shown a consistent ability to get to the quarterback. He did it during the preseason last year. He did it in his brief run with the Green Bay Packers at the end of last season. He’s doing it again now.
And that should get Gilbert a roster spot.
It should also put him in the regular rotation at outside linebacker.
Gilbert rang up 2.5 sacks against the Steelers on Thursday night. And he did so against guys who are actually going to play in the regular season.
