Linebackers

  • Devin Bush Jr.
  • TJ Watt
  • Mark Barron
  • Vince Williams
  • Bud Dupree
  • Tyler Matakevich
  • Anthony Chickillo
  • Sutton Smith
  • Ulysees Gilbert III

Devin Bush Jr. has looked every bit the part of the next great Steelers linebacker while making plays all over the field throughout the preseason. He will pair with solid veterans Barron, Williams, and Matakevich to create a formidable rotation and inside linebacker. Watt and Dupree are the unquestioned workhorses as the pass-rushing outside linebackers. Chickillo and Smith will provide solid, tough depth on the edge while Gilbert III is a speedy linebacker who will make the team as a core Special Teamer.
