Keith Butler’s snafu regarding Tyler Eifert being a problem to cover makes his situation worse

Sometimes you wish you could make stuff up with this Pittsburgh Steelers team, but you really can’t, can you?

Keith Butler, in an interview with Bob Labriola noted that the Steelers would have trouble covering Bengals Tight End Tyler Eifert.

The only issue is that Eifert has been on IR for most of the season after breaking his ankle.

In audio that was posted to Steelers Depot , Labriola said, “Tyler Eifert, where does he rank in your minds in terms of tight ends, you faced a lot good tight ends this season…”

Butler’s response: “Oh yeah, I think he’s very good, I think he’s up there, he can get deep on you, he does a good job of catching the ball downfield, all that stuff, so he’s going to be a problem for us to cover.
