The Person Behind The Player: CB Justin Layne

New Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Justin Layne is a man of a few words. Cornerbacks like Jalen Ramsey and Richard Sherman have taken over the game over the last number of years, not just for their play but also for their banter. Layne prefers to operate in a different manner.

“I just let my game do the talking for the most part, unless [opponents] are talking first. I just always kept to myself,” Layne told Connor Muldowney of Spartan Avenue.

Layne certainly let his game do the talking in his last season at Michigan State – 72 tackles, 15 pass defenses and one interception.
