The good news for the Steelers is that 2015 second-round cornerback Senquez Golson says that his shoulder is “100 percent ready to go” after an injury forced him to miss his entire rookie season.
The bad news is that Golson still spent some time in an MRI tube last week. Golson didn’t take part in Tuesday’s OTA session in Pittsburgh and explained, via the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, that a “soft tissue” injury is the reason why he’s on the sideline.
Golson only expects to miss “just a couple days” and wasn’t worried that he’ll miss too much as a result of this injury.
If Golson can keep up, he will try to add to the number of new faces in prominent roles in the team’s secondary. They drafted cornerback Artie Burns in the first round and safety Sean Davis in the second round as they try to shore up a group that finished 30th in the league in passing yards allowed.
