Pittsburgh Steelers QB Race Factor: Kenny Pickett's/Mitch Trubisky's Connection with Pat Freiermuth: Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers will have a big quarterback race on their hands during their training camp. But will Kenny Pickett, Mitch Trubisky and Mason Rudolph have to prove to win? A big factor could be the connection with tight end Pat Freiermuth. Ben Roethlisberger struggled to throw down the middle of the field in 2021, but any quarterback who can do that in 2022 might have a leg up in Matt Canada's offense. And the best way to do that will be for Freiermuth to be a featured part of that offense to help open up the run game for Najee Harris. That, and how the Steelers' quarterback coaches Mike Sullivan and David Corley can help Pickett develop into a starter more quickly.

Pat Freiermuth, George Pickens, Najee Harris Show Out in Steelers Minicamp, Promising Young Guns: Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Nick Farabaugh of SteelersNow.com and the Locked on Pitt podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers began minicamp Tuesday at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex. The team's pass catchers made big plays and stood out during two minute drills. Pat Freiermuth and George Pickens caught impressive touchdowns while Connor Heyward and Najee Harris also looked impressive. With such young players on offense, Matt Canada has some interesting options to build the Steelers' passing attack with play action, deeper passes and concepts that weren't used much around Ben Roethlisberger. But with Mitch Trubisky, Kenny Pickett and Mason Rudolph, there are more mobile quarterback options available.

Did Steelers Address Offensive Line Enough? Or is James Daniels Ready to Lead Group to New Heights?: Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. The Pittsburgh Steelers didn't address their offensive line once in the 2022 NFL Draft after signing James Daniels and Mason Cole in free agency and bringing back Chukwuma Okorafor. But was that enough to fix the offensive line that's struggled in recent years? Between Daniels, Cole, Okorafor, Kendrick Green, Kevin Dotson, Dan Moore Jr. and J.C. Hassenhauer, the Steelers' offensive line will have a lot of work in 2022 to establish an identity. But can they become the group that opens up holes for Najee Harris and protects either Kenny Pickett or Mitch Trubisky or Mason Rudolph enough in the pocket? There's ways the skill players can help mitigate the OL's struggles, especially with mobile quarterbacks.
