Back to the Pittsburgh Steelers Newsfeed

Mike Tomlin adds to the excitement about the growth and development of Justin Hunter

Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin was back in his hometown over the weekend, but he isn’t the only person on the team that calls the area known as “Seven Cities” his home. Wide receiver Justin Hunter was born in Virginia Beach, just a few miles from where Tomlin grew up in Hampton, Virginia.

Returning home to host the Hampton Roads Youth Foundation Football Camp, Tomlin also spent some time talking to reporters about the upcoming season, but he wasn’t the only hometown hero the local media wanted to hear about. Mitch Brown of News 3 wanted to know how Hunter was looking heading into his second season with the Steelers and Tomlin had nothing but good things to say about him.
