The Pittsburgh Steelers have something of a question on their hands when it comes to tackling their secondary this offseason. You see, they lost two starters at the cornerback position from last season. And on the surface, it appears as though their plan may be to use one player to replace both.
Veteran slot cornerback Mike Hilton signed with the Cincinnati Bengals in free agency. The team also chose to release Steven Nelson due to salary cap limitations. The re-signed Cameron Sutton now moves up from the top backup cornerback and dime defender. He is likely a starting outside cornerback who moves into the slot for sub-packages.
