T.J. Watt Hoping Patrick Queen Is What Defense Needs, ‘That True Dawg In The Middle’

The Pittsburgh Steelers are hoping that Patrick Queen locks the revolving door they’ve had at inside linebacker for several years. Since Ryan Shazier’s injury in 2017, the Steelers haven’t stopped searching for the answer. They took a big swing trading up for Devin Bush in the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft, but they missed on that one.

Before and after that move, the Steelers have leaned heavily on free agency to address their hole in the middle. Starting with Jon Bostic in 2018, they hope that Queen is finally the end of the line.
