Summary

Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Josh Taylor of KDKA-TV and 93.7 The Fan. The Pittsburgh Steelers announced the retirement of Stephon Tuitt Wednesday. That means the need help on the defensive line next to Cam Heyward and Tyson Alualu to help the run defense improve from being last in the NFL in 2021. That could mean Larry Ogunjobi in free agency or just that the Steelers will need to see if Chris Wormley or DeMarvin Leal can be ready for increased snap on the defensive line. Either way, Omar Khan needs to used the Steelers' newly increased salary cap space of $21 million for something on the roster. That could mean free agency, or even a trade to pick up a solid veteran. Also, Devin Bush and Myles Jack spoke after the Steelers' Wednesday OTAs. Bush explained his injury recovery process not being complete until after last season and how he feels much more comfortable with his knee/ACL. Jack spoke about his excitement to work with Bush and learn under Brian Flores. But both know, they have to be a stellar pair as sideline-to-sideline linebackers who stuff the run and help against the pass.

1:32.2	breaking news, but a big, big detail here and there. And after doing some radio this morning and
1:37.1	kind of wake it up from a nap and say, oh, well, Stefan 2, it's retired. That's a fun,
1:41.4	little interesting piece of news to have happened in the middle of the day. Other than that, it's been pretty good.
1:45.9	Yeah, let's get right into that news, too, because Stefan Tuitt's retirement, it's not entirely shocking because he's been out for so long and it was certainly the question, will he retire, will he play?
1:56.1	One thing I want people to understand, if the Steelers had any inkling that this was definitely going to happen,
2:02.3	they would have asked him to do this a long time ago. So for people that are saying, like,
