Browns safety Juan Thornhill and defensive tackle Maurice Hurst sat out Thursday's practice.
Here are some other quick hits from Kevin Stefanski and others:Stefanski said the Steelers run some complicated schemes that can cross up a defense.
He noted the same thing about the opposite side of the ball and special teams with players such as Minkah Fitzpatrick, T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith. “You don’t replace him with one person,” Stefanski said. “I think they have multiple guys really. They added to their depth along the front in the off season, so I think it’ll be multiple guys. He’s a great, great player. We’ve played against him many times. They got a ton of respect for him.Stefanski said the Steelers have multiple formidable edge rushers like the Browns do, with Watt — the 2021 NFL Defensive Player of the Year who had three sacks in the opener — and Highsmith.
“Yeah, that was a unique start to that game,” he said. “It really got away from them early, so I think they - only rushing the ball ten times. We don’t expect that from them. So he’s a very good player. We’ve played him. We know what he’s capable of. Athletic, can make every throw, fits their scheme really well, so we have to make sure we have a good week of practice.”Pickens caught 5 of 7 targets in the 30-7 loss to the 49ers, and Stefanski knows he can make the big play at any time.
