The Pittsburgh Steelers wrapped up their mandatory minicamp on June 13, concluding the third and final phase of the NFL’s offseason program. Rookie minicamp, OTAs, and finally the three-day mandatory minicamp gave the coaches their first look at the 2024 NFL Draft picks practicing in Steelers uniforms. First-round offensive tackle Troy Fautanu certainly didn’t disappoint.
According to offensive line coach Pat Meyer, Fautanu improved substantially from the beginning of rookie minicamp to the end of mandatory minicamp. Fautanu credits a lot of this improvement on taking reps against phenomenal edge rushers like T.J. Watt.
