It’s never wise to start evaluating the play in the trenches on either side of the football until the pads come on in training camp and things go live, but with one padded practice out of the way, Pittsburgh Steelers’ head coach Mike Tomlin is feeling good about his young crop of rookie offensive linemen.
Speaking with reporters Tuesday following the first padded practice of training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Tomlin stated that the trio of Troy Fautanu, Zach Frazier and Mason McCormick have done some nice things and been tireless workers on and off the field, which has pleased him.
