Steelers’ Okorafor Listed As Player Primed For Breakout In Contract Year

Entering a contract year while switching to a new position could make for a tough 2021 season for Pittsburgh Steelers’ left tackle Chukwuma Okorafor.

CBS Sports’ Chris Trapasso doesn’t believe so though, listing Okorafor as his top player primed for a breakout in a contract year Thursday, stating that the Steelers’ left tackle will be viewed as one of the better young left tackles in football after the 2021 season, all while commanding a hefty raise.

Trapasso might not be far off with that assessment, especially after hearing new Steelers’ offensive line coach Adrian Klemm’s comments Thursday.
