PITTSBURGH (AP) – Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker Bud Dupree is setting himself up for a big payday next spring. Dupree has 6 sacks through 8 games, matching his career high. Dupree is entering the final season of the rookie contract he signed after the Steelers selected him in the first round of the 2015 draft. Teammate Cam Heyward says Dupree has matured both on the field and off and the Steelers should do what they can to make sure Dupree stays in Pittsburgh in 2020.
