‘This Game Means A Lot’: Teryl Austin Shares Praise For Juan Thornhill Ahead Of Browns Reunion

Juan Thornhill spent two years with the Cleveland Browns before he joined the Pittsburgh Steelers this past offseason. He didn’t play well during his time there, and neither did the Browns as a whole. To this day, it’s not a chapter of his career that he likes to discuss.

Now in Pittsburgh, Thornhill is part of a defense that’s been complicated, to say the least. They’ve underperformed the sky-high expectations they set for themselves before the year began, but have still done enough to keep the team at 3-1. Thornhill’s been a part of that impact, according to his defensive coordinator, Teryl Austin.
