Veteran offensive linemen Joe Haeg, signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday, has played up and down the line throughout his five-year career. He’s played guard, he’s played tackle, and there’s no question that versatility is one reason why the Steelers went out and signed him. Depth along the offensive line is slim right now.
But where Haeg may end up the most in 2021 is as the team’s 6th offensive linemen. The tackle-eligible, popularized by Zach Banner in 2019. But with Banner now a starting tackle and Jerald Hawkins, who occupied that role last season, still unsigned, Haeg fits well in that role.
