New Faces, Big Plays, and Rising Stars | Pittsburgh Steelers News

Veteran Damontae Kazee made a splash in his first game, logging heavy snaps and delivering key tackles—including a sack and a fourth-down stop—showing he’s ready to earn trust. Meanwhile, linebacker Carson Bruener, whose dad scouts for the team, added a sack and is bulking up to dominate the trenches. Running back Kaleb Johnson got more touches, including a big reception and a solid run (though one was nullified), as coaches push him to process the playbook faster. Rookie punt returner Kaden Wetjen flashed speed but struggled with ball security, acknowledging the need to improve while embracing feedback. And on the offensive line? Still a jumble of possibilities—coaches are testing combos, and no starting five is locked in yet. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
