Much anticipation and hype continues to surround Pittsburgh Steelers’ rookie center Kendrick Green, who has looked rather strong in the initial phase of 2021 training camp at Heinz Field.
So strong, in fact, that veteran defensive tackle Tyson Alualu heaped praise on the young third-round draft pick following Friday night’s practice, stating that Green seems to be a “great fit” for the Steelers’ offense and the transition along the offensive line following the retirement of center Maurkice Pouncey, the release of David Decastro, and the departures of Alejandro Villanueva and Matt Feiler in free agency.
Alualu knows better than most, considering he’s gone against Green in the trenches each day and has seen the athleticism, power and nastiness up close and personal.
