Few coaches have been a more vocal advocate of ‘sub-package football’ in recent years than Pittsburgh Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin, who has made it a key point of conversation in the offseason for a while now. As the years go on, you also start to see it more and more on his roster, and in what they do on the field. That could reach a new level this year, with a variety of talents a running back, wide receiver, linebacker and in the defensive backfield.
Said Tomlin following yesterday’s practice during his media availability, courtesy of Teresa Varley on the team’s website, “I think the versatility of all of the guys” will be a focus over the course of the next couple of weeks as they prepare to trim a 91-man roster down to 53 players.
