Iron sharpens iron.
So the old saying surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Mike Tomlin era goes.
That is nowhere more true within the dynamic of the Black and Gold in the 2024 season than in the offensive line room. Young players like tackles Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu continue to battle it out at right tackle, and young guards Spencer Anderson and Mason McCormick continue to push each other in the absence of veteran Isaac Seumalo.
For veteran left tackle Dan Moore Jr., who spoke to reporters Wednesday following practice at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex on the South Side, that competition within the offensive line room is lighting a fire, especially for the young players.
