SCB Steelers Training Camp Preview: Tight Ends

Our Training Camp previews roll on with a look at the tight end position. Say what you will about Jesse James but he was a pro who showed up for work and gave the Steelers everything he had. Replacing him at the number two spot is not going to be easy. Does the team have faith in Xavier Grimble and rookie Zach Gentry? Let’s discuss.

Receiving Yards: 1,118 yards (22% of total receiving yards)

Receptions: 86 (James -30, McDonald -50, Grimble -6)

Targets: 119 (17% of total targets)

Vance McDonald (7th year)

McDonald is far and away the number one tight end on this roster.
