Tre Norwood Honing In On Free Safety, But ‘Always Ready To Play Any Position’ In Secondary

If the season were to start today, would rookie seventh-round pick Tre Norwood be the Pittsburgh Steelers’ backup free safety? That’s what the depth chart says, though an actual in-game need could tell a different story.

Still, things appear to be going well for the late-round defensive back. Even going back to OTAs, he was garnering positive reviews for his performance. While branded a Swiss Army knife when he was drafted, the coaches have so far been keeping him steady at safety.

I think it’s been going good, just being able to kind of hone in on one position and make that my focus right now, but I’m always ready to play any position on that back end”, he told reporters after practice earlier today.
