Cory Trice Jr.’s journey has been anything but easy. Selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the seventh round of the 2023 draft, Trice looked like a better player in college than that selection would indicate. However, injuries were a major concern with him, most notably a torn ACL in 2021. Unfortunately, those issues followed him to the NFL as he tore his other ACL before his rookie season even began. It sounds like that experience left him feeling negative about his chances of making the team that year.

“I’m like, ‘I don’t know what’s going on, but something ain’t right,'” Trice said Thursday on Christian Kuntz’s podcast.
