Steelers Pros/Cons of Kenny Pickett and First Team Offense in Training Camp | Mentors Abound at Camp

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers are well into their second week of training camp. While Kenny Pickett and the offense are showing progress, there are both pros and cons of how they've performed in camp. Chris Carter breaks down the positives and the negatives, and why the red zone is still a major concern for Matt Canada's offense. Also, Mike Tomlin continues to build strong connections with his players in practices and it's becoming more obvious with each day, as Chris Carter shares stories from training camp, including a Steelers safety who notes how Tomlin has challenged him to be better in a fun way. Finally, Keeanu Benton spoke with Chris Carter about who his biggest mentors have been in training camp. It's not just fellow defensive linemen, but also offensive linemen. And it shows a willingness to mentor and teach that's proven to be infectious across the Steelers' roster at training camp, and creating a positive environment for growth with the Steelers' rookies and younger players.
