Maurkice Pouncey is still one of the top centers in the NFL. Pass Pro is never passive with him. pic.twitter.com/LTBoaOFUTD

Camp outlook: The Steelers return essentially their entire offensive line from 2018, with right tackle Matt Feiler going from fill-in to starter and Pouncey will continue snapping to fellow vet Ben Roethlisberger. Nothing to see here.
Projected role: Pouncey will start and should be a favorite to make an eight Pro Bowl if he stays healthy.
