SCB Steelers’ Quick Hitters: The “Fill-In Feiler” Edition

Good Friday to you Steelers’ Fans!

The Steelers announced a short time ago that Matt Feiler would be starting in place of Marcus Gilbert due to a knee injury. This will be Gilbert’s second missed game this season and his 14th missed game dating back to 2016. If you had any questions about why the Steelers drafted Chuks Okorafor (and before him Jerald Hawkins) then there’s your answer. While he might not be ready to start, the Steelers love Okorafor’s athleticism and potential. As for Feiler, he did a very solid job in place of Gilbert back in week three when the Steelers were in a must-win situation against the Buccaneers.
