Sunday won’t be Troy Fautanu’s NFL debut, but after missing nearly all of his rookie season, it almost feels that way. Suffering a season-ending knee injury, he spent the vast majority of the 2024 season on the Reserve/Injured List. The Steelers, then, still have a lot to learn about him, and he has a lot to learn about himself. But he knows where he believes his game is strongest, and is excited to show it.
“I think it’s being out in space. Whether that’s run or pass or screens. Something about the space helps me, for some reason,” Fautanu said of his greatest strength, via the Steelers’ website.
