It felt like the Pittsburgh Steelers got away with highway robbery after the 2023 NFL Draft when they selected Cory Trice Jr. in the seventh round.
The 6-3 cornerback drew rave reviews in rookie training camp and was deemed an “avatar” for his length and athleticism. Unfortunately, that hype quickly came to a halt after Trice tore his ACL on the first day of training camp.
Now in 2024, a year after his injury, the Steelers remain “cautiously optimistic” on his potential, according to The Athletic’s Mark Kaboly via 93.7 The Fan on Friday.
