Villanueva’s Former Teammates Take His Comments In Stride: ‘Al Is Living In Your Heads Rent Free Right Now’

Former Pittsburgh Steelers tackle Alejandro Villanueva is often mistaken as being a very serious guy. While he can be very thoughtful and insightful when answering serious questions, however, a deeper dive into his media history — including social media via teammates — shows a guy who loves to joke around and have fun as well.

It seems as though a lot of people got their first real taste of that yesterday when he had some fun with his former teammates and with the media while taking some shots at his friends, suggesting that Kevin Zeitler will be an ‘upgrade’ over David DeCastro as a commuting buddy, and joking that wide receivers probably prefer TikToks over run blocking.
