Rookie running back Master Teague III may be a born-and-bred Tennessean, and he may have played his ball for Ohio St., but as far as professional football goes, he told reporters yesterday, his heart has always been in Pittsburgh.
“Actually, growing up, that’s my team, waving the Terrible Towel in bonus room screaming, family watching the game”, he told reporters during his first media availability as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers, via the team’s website. “I’m excited to be here. It’s a blessing, so I’m just looking to take advantage of every opportunity I get”.
