Pittsburgh Steelers Assess Training Camp Linebackers, Defensive Line Performances
The 2025 NFL preseason has showcased several promising linebacker and defensive line performances across teams. Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Wilson has demonstrated significant improvement in run defense and coverage, positioning himself as a key every-down linebacker alongside Patrick Queen, while teammate Leota impressed with consistent pressure despite some run defense limitations. The Steelers' defensive line also saw a surprise standout in Yahya Black, who exceeded expectations with his size, awareness, and pass-rush ability, contributing two sacks despite injury setbacks. Meanwhile, undrafted rookie Jay Higgins with the Baltimore Ravens has emerged as the top rookie linebacker of the preseason, recording notable tackles, a sack, interception, and forced fumble, reflecting his distinguished college career at Iowa. These developments highlight the infusion of talent and depth in linebacker and defensive line positions as teams prepare for the regular season. Other college and team updates, such as Arizona Wildcats' revamped coaching staff and Louisville's offensive line depth, are less directly related to the NFL preseason linebacker and defensive line focus and were therefore excluded.
