For the four rookies who played, their first-ever home game with the Pittsburgh Steelers was memorable. All four played a role on Sunday. Jack Sawyer had his first NFL sack, Yahya Black saw a ton of snaps after Isaiahh Loudermilk got injured, Kaleb Johnson made a costly error, and even Carson Bruener had his first defensive snap in the NFL.
It was also memorable for all the wrong reasons. They let a winnable game get away from them with three major disasters within seven minutes of game time in the second half.
Let’s take a look at how each rookie fared on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks.
