Can Robert Spillane Set A Special Teams High Water Mark In 2020?

Props to Steelers’ LB Robert Spillane. After replacing Ulysees Gilbert III mid-way through 2019, Spillane became one of the top special teamers not only on the Steelers but in the NFL. Over just 11 games, he recorded 11 tackles, all on special teams, finishing second on the team and a stone’s throw away from near the top in the league.

Can he do the same in 2020? He won’t spend this year on the practice squad like he did a year ago. He’s almost a lock to the make the team as the #4 ILB and core special teamer.
