It looks like Pittsburgh could be signing their solution at nickel cornerback
The Pittsburgh Steelers have depth issues at cornerback, specifically at nickel cornerback.
Right now, undrafted free agent Beanie Bishop would likely be the No. 1 option at the nickel spot. The only other two realistic options currently on the roster are Darius Rush and Cory Trice.
However, that could change.
The Steelers met with Cam Sutton ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft, and now it seems as if a reunion is on the horizon. According to Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, there is a strong possibility the Steelers will bring back Sutton.
“Yeah, I think that’s a really good possibility,” Fittipaldo said during an appearance on 93.7 The Fan. “Now, I think you guys know the Steelers will take their time with this, and they’ll let the legal process play out.
They will let the commissioner’s office do their investigation, and then I think they’ll get a feel for what the punishment might be, if there’s any.”
Sutton turned himself into police in Hillsborough County, Florida, after a warrant was issued for his arrest for a domestic violence incident. He was a third-round pick of the Steelers in 2017, spending the next six years with the Steelers before signing with the Detroit Lions ahead of the 2023 season.
