NFL players have to operate on the league’s schedule. But Alan Faneca knows their bodies don’t always cooperate. Reacting to the Pittsburgh Steelers’ tough end to the 2024 season, including a Saturday-Wednesday turnaround in Weeks 16 and 17, Faneca knows the challenge that looms ahead.
Thursday morning, he took to Twitter to react to the team playing the Baltimore Ravens on Dec. 21 before facing the Kansas City Chiefs on Christmas Day.
“It takes four days to start feeling better after a December game. Facing a conference rival and a Super Bowl champion just four days apart is a real challenge,” he tweeted.
