The former No. 1 pick for Pittsburgh was arrested on Sunday

Former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker was arrested on Sunday in Allegheny County on simple assault and harassment charges, according to Colin Dunlap of KDKA. Further details are yet to be known.

The Steelers traded up for Bush in the 2019 NFL Draft, where they selected the Michigan product with the No. 10 overall pick. He showed tremendous potential as a rookie, finishing third in the Defensive Rookie of the Year voting after racking up 109 tackles, nine of which were for loss. He also had four fumble recoveries and returned one for a touchdown.

Things went south for Bush after the 2020 season, in which he tore his ACL and was never the same after returning. The Steelers declined his fifth-year option, and he signed with the Seattle Seahawks ahead of the 2023 season and then spent 2024 with the Cleveland Browns. Bush signed a one-year deal with Cleveland again this offseason.
