Speed on defense is becoming the 2019 Steelers strong suit

In an article published on Wednesday, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler highlighted how the Steelers are using their speed on defense in order to hopefully make a jump in production for the 2019 season.

“Everybody can run,” Fowler quoted Steeler’s NT Javon Hargrave.

It’s no secret the Steelers have been targeting players on the defensive side of the ball based on their quickness and speed in which they play the game. Steelers’ 2019 first-round draft pick Devin Bush is believed to be one step in replacing the speed the team lost in 2017 with the injury to Ryan Shazier.
