As a young kid growing up in Pittsburgh, Colby Sorsdal idolized Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro right guard David DeCastro, rocking his jersey every Game Day during football season, aiming to hopefully be just like him.
Now, Sorsdal is one step closer to being an NFL offensive lineman, just like DeCastro was.
Sorsdal — 6051, 301 pounds with 32 3/4-inch arms and 9 1/4-inch hands — was the second-highest graded offensive lineman in the FCS at William & Mary in 2022, according to Pro Football Focus. Now, at the 98th edition of the East-West Shrine Bowl in Las Vegas, the Pittsburgh product is aiming to reach the next level and achieve a lifelong dream of playing in the NFL — and hopefully in the all familiar black and gold.
