‘I’m Gonna Smile In The Face Of Things:’ Dan Moore Jr. Blocks Out External Criticism

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive line has been quite the topic recently. One of the players who’s dealt with that noise the most is their left tackle, Dan Moore Jr.

The Steelers picked Moore up in the fourth round back in the 2021 draft. Ever since then, despite a solid start to his career, his starting spot on the offensive line has been called into question, especially in recent years. Pittsburgh selected tackles in the first round in each of the past two drafts in Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu. With that in mind, it seemed like Moore’s days as a starter on the offensive line were numbered.
