Steelers Insider Ray Fittipaldo Would Be ‘Surprised’ If OT Troy Fautanu Isn’t Week 1 Starter

The Pittsburgh Steelers made a big stride toward completing their offensive line rebuild in the 2024 NFL Draft with three of their first five picks used on the big guys up front. But how early will the rookie additions to the OL get involved? Mike Tomlin has historically been pretty cautious with rookies when possible. Zach Frazier seems more likely to start Week 1 because of the lack of an experienced alternative option. Troy Fautanu is in a different situation with Dan Moore Jr. still on the roster as a three-year starter at the position.

Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo held a Steelers chat on Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on Tuesday morning and was asked about Fautanu’s fit as a rookie along the offensive line.
