After his solid preseason debut last week, Mike Tomlin told the media in his postgame press conference that C Zach Frazier would be in line for an increased workload. Then on Wednesday, during the final practice at Saint Vincent College, Nate Herbig got injured. That injury is reportedly serious and should hold him out for an extended period of time, which obviously accelerates the timetable for Frazier becoming the starter.
After today’s game and Frazier working with the first-team offense, Tomlin summarized Frazier’s play.
“I was largely satisfied with the work that I saw from Frazier,” Tomlin said in a video posted on the Steelers’ YouTube channel.
