Today was the last practice for the Pittsburgh Steelers before they get a break for a day, and with that came more physicality. Players and coaches have emphasized that they want the entire team to be extremely physical this year. Practice today showed that once again, with goal-line drills being a focus. Those sessions can be intense, like a fistfight in a phone booth, but they can also provide a great experience. In his press conference after practice, Tomlin seemed impressed with the way some young players stepped up.
In a video via the team’s website, Tomlin was asked if anything jumped out to him from that goal-line period.
