Aging offensive line could be the downfall of the Steelers in 2020

Since the days of Todd Haley, the Steelers have possessed one of the better offensive line groupings in the NFL. Mike Munchak was able to turn undrafted talents like Alejandro Villanueva and Ramon Foster into quality starters that helped pave the way in the running game and keep Ben Roethlisberger upright.

However, the consecutive years of quality offensive line play are quickly coming to a close. Pittsburgh possesses the NFL’s oldest offensive line starters, and it’s starting to show:

Current age of #Steelers starting offensive linemen:

Alejandro Villanueva: 31
Ramon Foster: 34
Maurkice Pouncey: 30
David DeCastro: 30
Matt Feiler: 27
Average age of starter: 30.
