KEEANU BENTON

Nose Tackle

There were not a lot of bright spots for the Steelers during their 25-10 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday night, but Keeanu Benton's play would qualify as one of the few. Benton was in on 7 tackles, added a sack, 2 hits on the quarterback, and 2 tackles for loss. Benton now has 3 sacks in the last 4 games to give him 4.5 on the season.

Benton is the Steelers Digest Player of the Week.

Also considered were Jaylen Warren, who had 70 yards rushing on 14 carries (5.0 average) and 2 catches for 21 yards for a team-best 91 yards from scrimmage; Alex Highsmith who had 2 sacks to raise his total on the season to 4.5, plus 3 hits on the quarterback; and T.J. Watt, who had 3 tackles, 1 sack to give him 6 on the season, and 3 hits on the quarterback.
