Steelers All 91: ILB Tegray Scales

Published

on

All 91 is a Pittsburgh Steelers Now series profiling each of the 91 members of the Steelers 2019 training camp roster.

46 • Tegray Scales, first-year inside linebacker

Last year: Spent his first NFL season in training camp with the Los Angeles Rams and on the Indianapolis Colts’ practice squad before signing with the Steelers on a future contract in January.

Stats: Played in four preseason games with the Rams and made 16 tackles. He also defended one pass.

Accolades, Highlights:

Camp outlook: Stuck at the back of a deep group of inside linebackers, Scales will really have to show something in preseason games to get a shot. The good news is that veterans Mark Barron and Vince Williams likely won’t monopolize reps.

Projected role: Will need to rise up the depth chart to make the practice squad, unless there are injuries or the Steelers decide to cut loose a veteran like Tyler Matakevich.
