After a solid Pro Day at Western Michigan a couple weeks back, Keion Adams is set for a workout with an AFC North team.

Adams, listed by some as an outside linebacker and by others as a defensive end, is set for a private workout with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Wednesday, a source tells Sporting News.

Adams' recent workouts, coupled with his production and explosives on tape, have generated a good amount of buzz among NFL teams. He reportedly met with the San Francisco 49ers a couple weeks back.

Last year with the Broncos, Adams produced 47 tackles, 7.5 sacks and 17 tackles for a loss. He was twice an All-MAC selection in college.

At his Pro Day in March, Adams ran a 4.7 40-yard dash and put up 27 reps in the bench press. He also recorded a vertical leap of 36 inches.
