Mike Tomlin Changing His Tune On Dan Moore Jr.’s Right-Tackle Abilities

Circumstances can change opinions in a hurry, as Dan Moore Jr. is finding out. Even if he still believes he is squarely a left tackle, head coach Mike Tomlin seemingly is coming around to the idea of him playing right tackle. That comes as a mild surprise given his previous comments about Moore. But he didn’t have two young first-round tackles at his disposal at that time, either.

A 2020 fourth-round pick, Dan Moore Jr. has only ever played on the left side. By now a three-year starter for the Steelers, he’s likely to lose his starting role to the duo of Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu.
