Steelers training camp: Are Jaylen Warren, Broderick Jones & Patrick Queen under most pressure?

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Brian Batko to ponder which returning players are under the most pressure when training camp begins next week at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe.

They start with the offense. Is Broderick Jones under real pressure right now? Or does the lack of competition at tackle give him a longer runway to prove himself? How will Jaylen Warren cope with names including Kaleb Johnson, Kenneth Gainwell and Trey Sermon jockeying for carries in the backfield? Does Roman Wilson need to show he can be a contributor in the receiving corps next to DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin III? And are Cordarrelle Patterson and Connor Heyward fighting for their jobs?

On defense, Is Beanie Bishop in trouble following the move for Jalen Ramsey? Have DeMarvin Leal and Isaiahh Loudermilk run out of time to prove they deserve rotational spots on the defensive line? Are Cole Holcomb and Mark Robinson fighting for one roster spot? And do Patrick Queen and Keeanu Benton need to do more to live up to lofty expectations?

Our duo tackles those questions, plus the challenges facing coach Mike Tomlin and coordinators Arthur Smith and Teryl Austin.
