‘Knows What He’s Doing Already:’ Teammates Says Jabrill Peppers Has Picked Up Steelers Defense Well

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed S Jabrill Peppers earlier this week to supplement the loss of DeShon Elliott due to injury. While Peppers has only had two practices with the Steelers, fellow safety Juan Thornhill said Peppers is already understanding Pittsburgh’s defense.

“He’s picking up our defense well. Sometimes it takes guys a week or something to adjust, but it doesn’t even seem like it’s gonna take that long. It seems like he just knows what he’s doing already. He’s gonna fit in pretty well and help us out,” Thornhill said via video by Chris Adamski of TribLive on Twitter.
