Former NFL TE Sees Steelers’ Defense Getting ‘Worse’ Following DeShon Elliott Injury

The Pittsburgh Steelers set a high standard for themselves on defense. However, not only have they fallen short of that bar this season, but they’ve been one of the worst defenses in the league. There’s not much that the Steelers’ defense has done right, especially in recent weeks. Currently, it’s ranked 30th in the league. While it can’t fall much further, former NFL tight end Delanie Walker believes S DeShon Elliott’s injury will be a significant blow to the Steelers.

“It’s going to get worse on the back end of the Steelers, too,” Walker said recently on the Bussin’ with the Boys podcast.
