Snap Counts vs. the Bengals show Javon Hargrave’s playing time could be increasing

The man fans affectionately call “J-Wobble” had been MIA for the Pittsburgh Steelers throughout the first 5 games of the regular season. Javon Hargrave, the team’s 3rd round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, was, at times, on the bench watching Daniel McCullers get snaps over him.

Not quite what the fan base was hoping for from No. 79 in 2018, not when his knifing defensive style could add a new dimension to the team’s defense. However, his style also is not the best for the defense stopping the run.
