PITTSBURGH -- Montravius Adams paused as he considered the question.
How did Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin change the trajectory of the nose tackle’s career?
“I really don't want to say this, but if I'm being 100% honest, I could possibly be home with my family,” Adams told ESPN recently. “What he did for me mentally was great. Like, can't even be explained. He’s one of them dudes you’ll run through a wall for, most definitely.”
Adams, a former Green Bay Packers third-round draft pick, was on the New Orleans Saints practice squad in November 2021 when the Steelers called to sign him to their active roster.
