Tomlin Names McCullers And Alualu As NT Candidates, Not Opposed To Adding Depth

For the first time this offseason, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ decision-makers were asked about their starting nose tackle. In a conference call, after the team’s virtual offseason, Mike Tomlin was asked to evaluate the position after losing Javon Hargrave to the Eagles.

Tomlin cited two names as candidates to replace Hargrave in the middle – Daniel McCullers and Tyson Alualu. But he also made it clear they’re willing to add outside help. Via ESPN’s Brooke Pryor.

McCullers was always going to be a candidate knowing he’s the only player on the roster who’s played nose tackle before.
