🏈 Former Pittsburgh Steelers offensive tackle Dan Moore Jr. wants to prove himself with the Tennessee Titans.
Obviously, I want to exceed expectations, but it’s not only about proving the team right, it’s about proving myself right,” Moore said. “I feel like my expectations will always be higher than anyone else’s are for me. I feel like by meeting my expectations, I’ll exceed the team’s expectations. So, not only do I want to prove them right, I want to prove them damn right, where they’re thinking, ‘We got our guy. He didn’t just do what we needed him to do. He did that and more.’ That is the consensus I want in the organization.”
🏈 Former NFL offensive lineman Damien Woody believes Najee Harris’ critical comments were an indirect shot at Mike Tomlin.
“I think it’s fair. I think it’s an indirect shot at Mike Tomlin, to be honest with you,” Woody said on ESPN’s First Take. “When you don’t have a QB, you don’t have an identity offensively. So, for a young guy coming in, you’re thinking, ‘Okay, who can I go to as a resource to see how this thing is done.’. As a running back, you want to be able to look on your side of the ball… Who do I look to? They didn’t have anybody. I think indirectly, he was talking about Mike Tomlin.”
🏈 Steelers All-Pro defensive tackle Cam Heyward was bummed out that Justin Fields didn’t stay in Pittsburgh.
“First of all, Justin’s a class act. He’s a guy that works his tail off and wants to lead by example. I was kind of bummed it didn’t work out here,” Heyward said on the Rich Eisen Show. “I thought we were going to have a chance to get him. But, I know that dude is going to dominate in New York.”
🏈 Cam Heyward believes the Steelers can still win a Super Bowl.
“Players can get better, I can be better. If I don’t think that, then I need to get out of this game because I’m a competitor,” Heyward said on The Pivot Podcast.
🏈 Cam Heyward doesn’t believe he called out Aaron Rodgers on his podcast.
