Steelers OLB Keion Adams Ready To Return To Field Again After Lost Rookie Season

Thanks to a shoulder injury that completely wiped out his 2017 rookie season, Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker Keion Adams is being looked at as bonus seventh-round draft selection this year by general manager Kevin Colbert.

“When we look at the outside linebacker, you know Keion Adams was a kid we took last year in the seventh-round had a real good early start in the training camp. And we were excited about where he was going to be able to go, but unfortunately had a shoulder injury that required surgery and you know, he didn’t get to play,” Colbert told the media at the conclusion of the 2018 NFL Draft.
