Patrick Queen, DeShon Elliot, & More On This Upcoming Steelers Season | Not Just Football

1 hour 3 minutes

Cam Heyward and Hayden bring together four of the Steelers’ hardest-working players — Patrick Queen, DeShon Elliott, Miles Killebrew, and Ben Skowronek — for a wide-ranging camp conversation about defense, special teams, and what it really means to wear the black and gold.

In this episode:

🏈 Patrick Queen and DeShon Elliott reflect on leaving Baltimore and why Pittsburgh feels like home

🔥 DeShon opens up about pointing to the Steelers logo at his press conference and what that moment meant

🎣 Patrick talks about starting his own fishing business (and why he swears he’s the best fisherman on the team)

😂 DeShon on viral clips, fashion debates, and the trash talk that sometimes goes too far

💥 Miles Killebrew and Ben Skowronek dive into life on special teams — from “welcome to the NFL” hits to fake punts and blocked kicks

🎤 Favorite Coach Tomlin stories, rookie moments, and why Pittsburgh’s locker room is built different

🧠 The value of special teams, being overlooked, and why this unit could be the Steelers’ X-factor in 2024
