Steelers Assistant Offensive Line Coach Watches Zach Frazier at Pro Day

A month after impressing scouts in drills at the NFL Combine, Zach Frazier performed admirably again at the Big 12 Pro Day event on Saturday. And the Pittsburgh Steelers were going to be watching this one closely. And they were, as assistant offensive line coach Isaac Williams attended the workout, according to Alex Kozora

And in the video shared by Kozora, Williams can be seen talking to Frazier. That’s not super surprising. Williams helped coach the offensive linemen at the Senior Bowl, so his attendance at this event was not stunning. And neither is their interest in Frazier, one of the top centers in the class.

Frazier, who held off on running the 40 in Indianapolis and promised to do it at the Big 12 Pro Day, was clocked at a 5.24 40-yard dash.

The information below from The Athletic’s Dane Brugler shows the rest of Frazier’s day.

6024, 315
40/10: 5.24/1.81
VJ: 28 1/2″
BJ: 8’4″
SS: 4.69
3C: 7.85

As has been the case for months, those in attendance praised Frazier for his skills, especially while recovering from an injury. But it did result in putting up only an okay RAS, something which Arthur Smith has not had in his offense. Rather, he has gone for more athletic players.

That is coming off a broken leg. So, that caveat needs to be there.

Another thing I will say — these are the centers Arthur Smith had in Atlanta. https://t.co/UAUu8gE8yX pic.twitter.com/LNDZfqxepm

While his measurements and intangibles all suggest Frazier is poised to succeed in the NFL, Frazier says most of what teams ask him about his health.

To that end, most of Frazier’s interview session with reporters at the Combine focused on his recovery.

Despite his progress, Frazier was over two hours late to his schedule interview session with the media, and that had everything to do with the concern over his health.

“So, I got an X-ray and an MRI on two different areas, and then one team wanted to see the other. So, like, I don’t know, if one team asks for it, you gotta go get it,” said Frazier about what caused the long delay.

In addition to questions about his health, Frazier did reveal he had formal meetings with the Dallas Cowboys and Chicago Bears. The Pittsburgh Steelers, however, a team he has been connected to for months, did not speak with him at the Combine. Pittsburgh’s recent decision to cut Mason Cole caused many to speculate they will use one of their early draft picks on a center, possibly Frazier.
