Size Alone Will Not Be Enough For Alejandro Villanueva To Fill Big Shoes At Left Tackle

While the Pittsburgh Steelers secured an improbably victory yesterday afternoon by virtue of topping the Cardinals by a score of 25-13, the win also came with a significant loss, as starting left tackle Kelvin Beachum was lost for the remainder of the 2015 season with a torn ACL.

That means that whenever Ben Roethlisberger returns, whether it is this week or in one of the next few games, he will have a new blindside protector that he has never played with before in the form of first-year tackle Alejandro Villanueva.
