Cameron Sutton Talks About Taking Advantage When He’s ‘The Next Man Up’

Short of James Conner and Benny Snell, nobody got their hands on the ball for the Pittsburgh Steelers as much as did third-year cornerback Cameron Sutton on Sunday night. Not only did he have an interception and two passes defenses, he also recovered an onside kick attempt on special teams.

It was perhaps the best game of his still relatively young career, and one in which the Steelers had to call upon him to play a number of different roles. Already without Steven Nelson during the game, they also lost Joe Haden late in the proceedings, so that thrust Sutton into starting duty on the boundary, where he had previously lined up in the slot, as the dimebacker, and even on the back end.
