Steelers Afternoon Drive: Blocking Changes Needed?

Welcome to the Steelers Afternoon Drive, our new daily podcast featuring all the latest Steelers news.

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss the latest surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers. Darnell Washington has played fewer snaps than both Connor Heyward and Rodney Williams as of late and it’s drawn the attention of the fanbase and media alike. Drafted in the third round primarily for his blocking ability, the offensive line could sure use the help he’d be able to provide there if nothing else. Jeffrey Simmons presents a unique challenge for Mason Cole, Isaac Seumalo and James Daniels. Do they have a blueprint for how to handle him though, given their ability to keep Aaron Donald in check? How has the off-ball linebacking group of Cole Holcomb, Kwon Alexander and Elandon Roberts played compared to the position group in year’s past? Should we see more of James Pierre and Elijah Riley in Minkah’s absence? All this and more on today’s Steelers Afternoon Drive!
