Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Bud Dupree ended his rookie season as the starter on the left side of the team’s defense and he registered 26 total tackles, 4 sacks and 6 quarterback hits.
Earlier this week, NFL Media senior analyst Gil Brandt named Dupree to his 2015 All-Rookie team due to his play.
Brandt wrote of Durpree’s selection:
All four of Dupree’s sacks came in the first half of the season, with his first two coming in Weeks 1 and 2. While the sack production leveled off, Dupree showed he’s a big, athletic guy whose speed and quickness make him hard to block.
