Outside of the quarterback debate for the Pittsburgh Steelers, quietly, the ongoing battle at offensive tackle is an important one, one that has been a bit overlooked at times.
But now, there appears to be some clarity, at least based on a report from the Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac. Rookie Troy Fautanu will be the starting right tackle when the Steelers take on the Atlanta Falcons on the road on Sept. 8 to open the season, while the left tackle position will come down to a battle between Dan Moore Jr. and Broderick Jones.
That decision from the Steelers is a bit confusing for the Post-Gazette’s Ray Fittipaldo.
