A year ago, the last man standing became the Pittsburgh Steelers’ starting slot cornerback. This year, it’s a full house. That leaves second-year Beanie Bishop Jr. fighting for a role and possibly even a roster spot. Mike Tomlin’s advice is to spend less time watching the depth chart and more time getting better.
“I don’t worry about the Joneses and neither should he,” Tomlin told the media following Monday’s practice via the team website. “He should focus on improving, and he has done that.”
Tomlin’s response came after being informed of Bishop’s comments to reporters about the players ahead of him on the depth chart.
