In the blink of an eye, we’ve gone from the preseason opener with a ton of enthusiasm and anticipation, all the way to the preseason finale Saturday afternoon at 1 p.m. at Ford Field in Detroit for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
A lot has happened since the Steelers kicked things off against the Houston Texans on Aug. 9. New faces have joined the team, some players have been lost for the year, and position battles continue to take shape ahead of final cutdowns on Aug. 27.
Though two members of the rookie class in first-round offensive tackle Troy Fautanu and third-round wide receiver Roman Wilson won’t play against the Lions, the rest of the Steelers’ rookie draft class will hit the field.
