Marcus Allen comes to the Steelers with a giant chip on his shoulder

The Pittsburgh Steelers needed defensive help heading into the 2018 NFL Draft, and they got it in a variety of ways. Most notably would be their two safeties selected in the first round (Terrell Edmunds) and the fifth round (Marcus Allen). Both are very similar, yet very different, in a lot of ways.

In the case of Allen, he brings with him an edge, or a swagger if you will, which is often times innately found within a player. What makes Allen play with such an edge? As he told Teresa Varley of the Steelers official website — he is just thrilled to be in his current situation.
