‘Nobody’s Gonna Hit Our Quarterback’: Nate Herbig Draws Line After Training Camp Scrum

It may still be early in training camp, but that doesn’t mean that the Pittsburgh Steelers aren’t already finding themselves getting physical.

Today at camp, Justin Fields ran a read option, taking the ball past the right side of the offensive line. He was met by Elandon Roberts, who gave him a decent (albeit not huge) hit. This goes against the procedure, as you are not supposed to tackle the quarterback even in padded tackling practice sessions.

The offensive line took particular offense to this, and rookie G Mason McCormick immediately got in the face of Elandon Roberts.
