Steelers add physicality to OLB room with Markus Golden signing.
The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed former Arizona Cardinals EDGE Markus Golden to add depth behind OLBs T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith. Golden is a stout run defender who has shown the ability to get to the QB thanks to his effort in pursuit as well as his ability to out leverage his competition. He lacks ideal size and length as a pass rusher, but should be able to provide competent production as a rotational player and mentor young guys like Nick Herbig.
