Randy Fichtner: ‘We Are Developing That Depth’ Along Offensive Line By Necessity

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive line depth sure has been tested a lot this year, especially considering the fact that they lost a starter and a top backup from last season’s roster—and also lost two other depth players through waivers in 2019 as well. And yet, in truth, they have held up.

Ramon Foster retired, so they moved right tackle Matt Feiler over to left guard in Foster’s spot, after top backup guard B.J. Finney left in free agency. Two young tackles, Zach Banner and Chukwuma Okorafor, competed to start at right tackle.

Banner won. He suffered a torn ACL in the opener.
