At the conclusion of the Pittsburgh Steelers first padded training camp practice on Sunday, head coach Mike Tomlin uncharacteristically pointed out one player who he thought performed well during the session and especially during the backs-on-backers drill. That player who Tomlin praised was none other than running back Fitzgerald Toussaint.
“Fitz Toussaint, I thought, specifically set a tone in that drill with his demeanor,” Tomlin said.
On Monday, Teresa Varley of steelers.com caught up with Toussaint and she asked him if it feels good to get such uncharacteristic praise from Tomlin and especially this early in training camp.
