Pottebaum out to keep the fullback position alive with Steelers

While walking alongside the fields in the back of the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex, it's not difficult to separate Monte Pottebaum from the rest of the pack.

Just look for the flowing, blonde mullet peeking through the back of the black helmet and draping over the No. 40 on the back of his jersey.

Though he is working in with the rest of the Steelers' running backs room -- and within a position that brings more flair and flash nowadays than perhaps in the past -- Pottebaum is a true throwback football player in every sense of the word.
