The Pittsburgh Steelers have started eight different offensive linemen so far through the first three games of the season. That will hopefully not change through the rest of the year, though it could if Maurkice Pouncey is injured before Stefen Wisniewski returns from injured reserve, as it would likely thrust J.C. Hassenauer into the starting role.
Wisniewski started the season opener because David DeCastro was out with a knee injury. Chukwuma Okorafor moved into the right tackle spot after Zach Banner tore his ACL in week one. DeCastro finally made his debut yesterday. And then there was rookie Kevin Dotson, the rookie fourth-round pick who started in week two as their third-string guard, and had one of the best individual lineman performances of the Steelers’ season so far.
