Steelers rookie DL Derrick Harmon and Yahya Black have flashed in Cam Heyward’s absence, but do they have flashes of him? With Heyward sitting out over a contract dispute, the rookies have seen plenty of snaps. Harmon recorded his first sack in last night’s game, and Black has made an impact, too.
Before and after the game, both Black and Harmon drew comparisons to Heyward. Foster compared Black to him in the pre-game conversion, and Chris Hoke did it for Harmon after. Given that he is on the Steelers, it’s a more obvious comparison to make. But he is also a lineman that young guys in high school and college study, so they’re not along.
