Mike Tomlin: Slot Corner Is ‘A Position That We’re All Looking For’

The Pittsburgh Steelers have a major hole at slot corner right now with Chandon Sullivan and Patrick Peterson, the team’s two primary slot corners last season, currently free agents. At the AFC Coaches breakfast at the annual NFL league meetings, Tomlin said that the position is one that everyone is looking for, and talked about the difference between how it’s played in the NFL and college.

“You know, we got some candidates, but obviously we’re probably still looking. I think that’s a position that we’re all looking for and looking at annually because some of the demands that come at that position in the NFL are somewhat different than in college.
