Earlier in the day, we passed along to you the word that Pittsburgh Steelers second-year linebacker Bud Dupree showed up at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe for the start of training camp 20 pounds lighter than he was during his rookie season. Because of that, head coach Mike Tomlin was asked Thursday evening during his first press conference of training camp if he has any concerns about an outside linebacker like Dupree dropping that much weight.
“No,” Tomlin quickly replied. “[Anthony] Chickillo has lost 20 pounds or so since we acquired him.
