Film Room: Marcus Allen Gets Some Run, Gets Run On In Debut

As I mentioned earlier today, the Pittsburgh Steelers saw the debut of not one but two rookies on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. One of them was Olasunkanmi Adeniyi, a college free agent who was just activated from the injured reserve list.

The other was Marcus Allen, the fifth-round safety who has been on the 53-man roster all season, but had never dressed before that game. He not only dressed, he also served as the team’s dimeback with both Morgan Burnett and Cameron Sutton unavailable.
