Throughout the 2023 season, pass protection was an issue for the Pittsburgh Steelers at offensive tackle.
Dan Moore Jr. graded out as the worst pass-blocking OT in football last season from Pro Football Focus during the 2023 season and rookie Broderick Jones struggled down the stretch from a pass-blocking standpoint at right tackle. Now, the Steelers have two quarterbacks in Russell Wilson and Justin Fields who like to hold onto the football to try and make plays through the air, heightening the need for better pass protection up front.
That could come in the form of Oregon State right tackle Taliese Fuaga.
