O-Line Never Panicked Amid Early Struggles, Mason Cole Says, And ‘The Questions Have Gotten Easier’

I imagine the Pittsburgh Steelers would still like to say that they never rebuild, they only reload, but the 2022 season is probably the closest they’ve come to anything resembling a rebuild in the Kevin Colbert era. At least the past two seasons, which has seen the offense turn over dramatically.

The offensive line has been one of the biggest areas of change, including two changes at offensive line coach. They invested in the position in free agency by signing right guard James Daniels and center Mason Cole, though tackles Chukwuma Okorafor and Dan Moore Jr. (a 2021 draft pick) retained their starting jobs, as did left guard Kevin Dotson, who entered the lineup in 2021.
