The Pittsburgh Steelers are looking for young players to step up this year. Here’s why it looks like Antoine Brooks could be one of them.

The Steelers are very early into the start of their 2021 training camp, but we are already starting to discover some important tidbits. Third-round rookie center, Kendrick Green, got the nod as the first-team center to open camp and rookie Dan Moore even took some reps with the first-team offense at left tackle.

While a large portion of the attention is expected to be on the rookie class, Antoine Brooks is a name that has been very quiet for most of the offseason.
