Former Tennessee Vols defensive back Cam Sutton made a terrific play on Sunday for the Pittsburgh Steelers in the team's final preseason game.
Sutton perfectly read a throw by Detroit Lions quarterback Tim Boyle and didn't miss his chance to capitalize on the unwise pass.
Check it out:
Sutton, a former three-star recruit who arrived at Tennessee without much fanfare in 2013, has carved himself out a key role in Pittsburgh's defense.
The former Vol has played well enough that there's been talk about Sutton receiving an extension from Pittsburgh. Reliable cornerbacks aren't easy to find, so when a team gets one, they like to lock them up.
Sutton may not be a Pro-Bowler, but he's dependable — he started 16 games for the Steelers last season and he's played in 63 out of a possible 65 games over the last four seasons.
Not bad for a player who didn't receive much hype coming out of Jonesboro High School in Georgia.
