Is moving Troy Fautanu to right tackle the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Plan A?
Many believed that the Steelers hoped to land a right tackle in the 2024 NFL Draft, and perhaps they did. The thinking is they wanted to move Broderick Jones to left tackle, which is why they drafted him. But first-round pick Troy Fautanu is also a left tackle, even if, like Jones, he practiced on both sides.
Jones managed to transition and hold up at right tackle last season, and one would think that Fautanu can do the same. Plenty of college left tackles move to the right side, though usually for different reasons.
