Isaiahh Loudermilk, Earning Praise From Mike Tomlin, In Position To ‘Do The Things We Expect’ In Year 2

After being pushed into the lineup late in his rookie season due to injuries and poor play in front of him, defensive end Isaiahh Loudermilk seized upon his opportunity in 2021, playing well down the stretch — especially against the run — putting himself firmly in the discussion to have a role in the rotation in 2022.

Building upon that strong close to his rookie season, Loudermilk hit the offseason hard, adding weight and strength while developing his pass rush repertoire. Now, entering the second full week of padded practices at training camp at Saint Vincent College, Loudermilk continues to draw plenty of attention for his impressive jump in play he’s taken so far this season.
