NFL head coaches calling for changes after consecutive losses is often lip service. Pittsburgh Steelers insider Mark Kaboly doesn’t view Mike Tomlin’s call for “necessary changes” after three straight defeats to be an exception.
But Kaboly argued there’s one significant personnel change the Steelers could make for Week 18 — bench veteran cornerback Cameron Sutton in favor of undrafted rookie Beanie Bishop Jr.
“That’s the only logical place you could make changes,” Kaboly said on 93.7 The Fan during a guest appearance on December 27. Unless he’s talking about making philosophical changes. This is a team that’s really struggled.”
Sutton is in his eighth NFL season, the last three of which he has been a regular starter. But since Sutton returned in Week 10, the Steelers defense has progressively gotten worse.
