The Pittsburgh Steelers offensive line remained at No. 24 in Pro Football Focus’ offensive line rankings ahead of Week 8, but rookie OG Mason McCormick has the attention of the outlet. McCormick played a “nearly perfect” game in pass protection, as he didn’t allow a single pressure on Russell Wilson in Week 7 against the New York Jets.
“Rookie right guard Mason McCormick played a nearly perfect game in pass protection. Pittsburgh’s fourth-round selection did not allow a single pressure all game and earned an 81.7 PFF pass-blocking grade,” Zoltán Buday wrote.
Broderick Jones was much less impressive for the Steelers, as he allowed a sack and finished the game with a 30.
