On A Loaded Steelers Defense, Myles Jack Knows He Doesn’t Have To Be Superman

After years of feeling like he had to be “the man” in the middle of the Jacksonville Jaguars’ defense, things are slowly starting to change for new Pittsburgh Steelers inside linebacker Myles Jack.

Following his surprising cut early in free agency just one year into a four-year extension with the Jaguars, Jack landed on his feet with the Steelers as part of a loaded defense overall featuring the star power of T.J. Watt, Cameron Heyward and Minkah Fitzpatrick, not to mention solid names like Tyson Alualu, Alex Highsmith, Cameron Sutton and more.

With such a deep, talented defense around him, Jack — who appeared on NFL Network’s Inside Training Camp Wednesday following practice at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe with Kurt Warner and Scott Hanson — knows he doesn’t need to be Superman any longer on the field, at least in his time in Pittsburgh.
