It’s been quite a few weeks on social media for Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Devin Bush. Bush has always been active on Twitter, but not to the extent he has been recently.

Mostly he’s just been posting nonsense, but he retweeted a video of a cat presumably falling to its death. You can find that one on your own. But that sparked many Steelers fans, and animal lovers alike to lash out at Bush. He wasn’t phased by the attacks and never took down the tweet. It does look like the original video has been removed, though.

Before that he spoke out against grown men having the TikTok application on their phone.

If you a grown man & you got TikTok on yo phone stay TF from around me.

— Devin Bush ll (@_Dbush11) July 1, 2021


That was largely controversial because of JuJu Smith-Schuster and Chase Claypool being big proponents of TikTok. But the fans tended to make a bigger deal over that than the players did.






He then attacked some content creators, which caused an uproar with some in the creators community. But it also caught the eye of Tennessee Titans running back, Darrynton Evans.

See all these “Content creators” wit no more than 400 views…. Nah you a bored MF

That obviously struck a nerve.

Now yesterday Bush continued his newly found love for posting one liners, generally cryptic one liners.

Welcome to the mind of a psycho

— Devin Bush ll (@_Dbush11) July 13, 2021


But this one was finally met with some friendly push back from Steelers captain Cameron Heyward.

Calm your *** down

— Cam Heyward (@CamHeyward) July 14, 2021


Now we don’t know exactly if there’s more to this or not. Maybe a couple text messages or DMs went flying around too. He continued to post a couple things, but nothing off the rails like most of his latest tweets. But it seems like Bush needs training camp to start just as much as the rest of Steeler Nation. I mostly just write this off as Bush being young, and bored. Nothing more. He’s going to be a super star in this league, let’s just hope that all of this goes away once the season kicks off.

Cam Heyward is the uncle at the BBQ with a cold beer in one hand and a nephews hair in the other... "HEY! Calm your *** down before I put a foot in your ***"

Real leadership would be a phone call or a private text. Are any of these guys capable of that anymore? And I'm not ******** on Cam. I think he is a good leader. But by posting a public message, you are saying something public to challenge a team mate. If that pisses him off you are going to be dealing with it in private in a week at training camp anyhow. Why not just a private text....... We are not using social media this way this season. If you got a problem with that give me a call.

We don't really know but probably a phone call was made too, and also from tomlin I'd bet

Hope this is just pent up energy on the part of Bush. Likely it was frustrating for him getting hurt early last season and wanting to get back to it.

The Steelers don't need the second coming of Mr. Big Chest.

I'm guessing that was already done as well. Perhaps doing it on a social media platform in front of millions of people just helps hammer the message home and makes Bush think twice about being an idiot? Hard to say what's really going on from the outside.

I would think twice as to wheather SBWHCMVLTHCMCS has made the phone call. I know none of us would know but just a hunch. It's nice how all the other dipshits are quiet yet BUSH continuals to be loud.

I just hope no one derails this season as It could easily be best of the last for BEN's playing days.

I took it as he probably did both. One to quiet the masses/fans like a damage control and the other behind the scenes. Way back in camp I saw that Jarvis Jones episode where he said what he felt needed to be said. Right then and there I knew that man had no reservations about saying something to a man's face.

pretty much how this story went down......
Claypool and Smith Schuster are in TicTok. Bush said you better keep that **** out of my face ironically on social media himself. Bush has some weird social media posts. Heyward says you better be responsible on social media. Ironically on social media.

From Bill Cowher’s book; it wasn’t all sunshine and roses, especially through those 1st 6 years. They had a lot of locker room drama; but also had the leadership to check teammates too.

Bill Cowher did something right as he went to 6 consecutive play offs from the start of his career. I get the locker room tumoil but like said he also had player leadership his entire coaching tenure.
