Pro Football Focus Ranks Steelers’ 2019 Run Defense 7th Overall

Just how good should we expect the Pittsburgh Steelers run defense to be in 2019? According to Pro Football Focus, the Steelers are expected to have a top 10 run defense in 2019.

In their Tuesday preseason NFL run defense rankings for the 2019 season, PFF has the Steelers ranked seventh overall and their main reason for that is because of their offseason addition of inside linebacker Devin Bush, the team’s first-round draft pick this year.

This is a unit that should only improve with the addition of sure tackling linebacker Devin Bush.
