Just a few weeks after going through training camp and the preseason with offensive lineman Kendrick Green, the Pittsburgh Steelers will be reunited with the former third-round draft pick on Sunday in Houston, this time as opponents.
Green, of course, was traded to the Texans prior to final 53-man roster cuts, netting the Steelers a sixth-round draft pick in 2025.
Early on, Green was expected to be depth for the Texans, who lost starting left guard Kenyon Green for the season due to an injury. The Texans also traded for Josh Jones from the Arizona Cardinals to plug in at right tackle, but he’s been filling in at left tackle for Laremy Tunsil, who is dealing with a knee injury.
