Pittsburgh Steelers rookie C Zach Frazier stepped foot on an NFL field in a meaningful game for the first time on Sunday. It wasn’t at the friendly confines of Acrisure Stadium, but the Steelers faithful did their best to make it feel like a home game in Atlanta versus the Falcons. Still, there are always first-game jitters. Those may have shown up early with some less-than-clean exchanges with QB Justin Fields.
But those jitters didn’t last long. Frazier proved pretty darn quickly why the Steelers wanted him. He spent more time on Sunday driving Falcons defenders into the Mercedes-Benz Stadium turf than looking like a rookie making his first NFL start.
