Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals the Pittsburgh Steelers didn’t have starting center Maurkice Pouncey due to a suspension, so B.J. Finney had to make his third career start at the position in his absence. While Finney’s play on Sunday against the Bengals was far from perfect, it was more than adequate and on Tuesday head coach Mike Tomlin essentially said as much when asked to comment on the performance of the former undrafted free agent out of Kansas State.
“Man, Finney always answers the bell when called upon,” Tomlin said.
