‘We Gotta Stop The Freakin’ Run’: Keith Butler Vows To Work On Tackling Issues In Training Camp

The Steelers are quite aware of this fact, and both defensive coordinator Keith Butler and new defensive backs coach Tom Bradley talked about the need to work on their players’ tackling skills in order to improve the defense as a whole.
