When the Pittsburgh Steelers made a relatively big splash in free agency this offseason with the addition of veteran cornerback Darius Slay on a one-year deal coming off a Super Bowl title with the Philadelphia Eagles, their goal was to add a veteran presence at a position of need, one who could help mentor some of the younger cornerbacks in the room.
Slay has embraced that quickly in Pittsburgh, especially after doing that last season with the Eagles and a pair of rookies in Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean, who played major roles in the Eagles winning the Super Bowl.
