Two Dogs, One Bone: Tanner Muse And Nick Kwiatkoski Battling For Pittsburgh’s Final ILB Spot

A continuation of a series started earlier this summer highlighting training camp battles at specific positions on the Pittsburgh Steelers’ roster as two players battle for the final roster spot on the depth chart. We previously covered the interior offensive line and wide receiver positions, and today we examine the inside linebacker position, specifically the battle between ILBs Tanner Muse and Nick Kwiatkoski.

Given the recent signing of Kwon Alexander to the roster, Pittsburgh’s inside linebacker room looks full. Cole Holcomb and Elandon Roberts project to be the starters in the base defensive formation with Alexander sprinkling in in sub-packages as well as in base on occasion.
