Artie Burns

This one is a no brainer. No one on this roster has played worse than Artie Burns. The team had high hopes for the third-year corner, coming into the season, but so far, he’s been an utter disappointment.

He can’t stay in assignment, he looks lost most of the time, and anyone who wants to beat him just needs to go deep. Really, he’s more of a liabilty than a help, and the Steelers have just about seen enough.

The more he’s on the field the worse this defense is. Coty Sensabaugh isn’t the answer, but he’s better than Burns right now. If the third-year defensive back wants to remain a part of the Steelers’ gameplan, he’ll use this week to improve his game.
