It’s back by popular demand! The return of looking at the players mentioned in Mike Tomlin’s press conferences carries on as the team came back from an off day for a fully padded practice. As is usually the case, these players are not always ones Tomlin brought up himself but are specifically players about whom Tomlin was asked questions. In fact, several players were brought up by Tomlin before he took questions as either missing practice or updating a previous injury.
The Steelers brought in two veteran players in Curtis Riley and Wendell Smallwood at the beginning of training camp this season.
