Entering training camp, the big question surrounding Pittsburgh Steelers rookie first-round pick Max Iheanachor was how much time he’d need getting up to speed in the NFL.

Prior to padded practices, one Pittsburgh Steeler has impressed rather consistently – CB Asante Samuel Jr. His 2024/2025 seasons were cut short by injury, which clearly took time to recover from.
