ESPN NFL reporter Jeremy Fowler is reporting that ESPN spoke to Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Joe Schobert and he confirmed he is being traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Schobert didn’t have the details of the trade but he sounded like he is excited to play on that Steelers defense.
If Schobert can re-capture the magic of his 2018 season, this will be a great move. Schobert was one of the best coverage linebackers in the NFL Regardless of that, adding Schobert will give the Steelers a smart inside linebacker and exceptional tackler.
