Pat Freiermuth got a “couple hours.” Troy Fautanu slept the whole flight (and Fautanu took a two-hour nap before practice). The Pittsburgh Steelers’ trip to Ireland for the first NFL game in the country involved a lot of sleep. With Ireland five hours ahead of Pittsburgh, getting enough rest and adjusting to the time change will be crucial for the Steelers if they want to win on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, and the Steelers used their approximately eight-hour flight to catch some Z’s before hitting the practice field today.
“I had my own aisle, four seats laid out, I was out for the whole flight,” Fautanu said via Steelers.
