Zach Banner is a large man. A very large man. But in 2017, he was too large. Even by an offensive linemen’s standards. He was 420 pounds, flamed out in Indianapolis and just cut by the Cleveland Browns. An NFL career already hanging in the balance. The Steelers, and let’s be honest, mostly because of injury, waived/injured Kyle Meadows and took a flier on Banner, bringing him into camp in mid-August of last year. Banner got his weight down, shedding 80 pounds since 2017, and spent all of last year on the 53 man roster.
