Steelers' DeShon Elliott Out for Year? Defense Needs Trade to Fix Itself? | DBs Grades Hit New Low

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com. The Pittsburgh Steelers' safety DeShon Elliott appears to be out for the year with a knee injury, which could force the defense into needing a trade to fix its problems. Christopher Carter and Alan Saunders take you into the Steelers locker room to talk with Payton Wilson about the defensive struggles and whether or not the unit has the answers to solve their own problems, or if their problems are too big to overcome. Also, it's time for Locked on Steelers' Stars and Skulls grades over the loss to the Green Bay Packers. The defensive backs' grades hit a new low, with major mistakes from Juan Thornhill, Joey Porter Jr. and Darius Slay. But how well did other players on the offense perform like Troy Fautanu, Jaylen Warren and Roman Wilson?
