On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, host Christopher Carter welcomes former Steelers Pro Bowl linebacker Ryan Shazier to discuss the team's tradition of defensive leadership. How was it passed down to him from Super Bowl champions like coach Mike Tomlin, and cornerbacks William Gay and Will Allen? How have stars like T.J. Watt and Cam Heyward carried the tradition forward in recent years? And how does a young standout like Joey Porter Jr. fit into it having grown up around the team? Our duo tackles those topics. Then later, Christopher welcomes Noah Hiles to discuss the state of Pitt football amid names including Dayon Hayes, Christian Veilleux and Solomon DeShields entering the transfer portal. And Matt Vensel stops by to analyze what comes next for the Penguins after they were eliminated from Stanley Cup Playoffs contention on Tuesday night. Learn more about your ad choices.
