After a so-so debut, Pittsburgh Steelers rookie RB Kaleb Johnson had a much better performance in the team’s second preseason game Saturday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Johnson had 11 carries for 50 yards and added a nine-yard reception. Second-year offensive tackle Troy Fautanu was impressed with Johnson’s performance at Acrisure Stadium.
“As you can see, Kaleb Johnson is a dude. He’s already a confident guy, you can tell, but the more reps he gets the better he looks. I feel like he was really just cutting it loose today and showed that,” Fautanu said via The Athletic’s Mike DeFabo on Twitter.
