Steelers' top-10 pick impresses in preseason debut
Devin Bush showcased exactly why the Pittsburgh Steelers selected him with the 10th overall pick in April's draft on Friday.
In his first half of preseason football, the inside linebacker was heavily involved in the action, recording 10 tackles, a fourth-down stop, and nearly added a pick-6.

The Steelers envisioned Bush filling the void left by Ryan Shazier, who continues to recover from a serious injury sustained in 2017.
