It goes without saying that the only reason Kendrick Green has been such a big storyline this week as the Pittsburgh Steelers travel to face the Houston Texans is because of his prior history with the team. Otherwise, he is just a nondescript player who shouldn’t really raise much of an eyebrow.
The bigger storyline along the Texans’ offensive line is the tackle situation. Although at left tackle they are set to start a third-string option, neither side is favorable, and they will be facing arguably the top pass-rush tandem in the NFL. It’s easy to predict a big showing for the duo, which is precisely what Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has done.
