That initial phone call from Pittsburgh Steelers’ head coach Mike Tomlin welcoming his latest draft pick is always special.
On Thursday night, it was a memorable one with Washington offensive lineman Troy Fautanu, whom the Steelers selected at No. 20 overall.
Friday night, it was another special one as Tomlin called West Virginia center Zach Frazier to welcome him to the Steelers as the No. 51 overall pick in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft.
“Frazier, what’s up my man? Hey, welcome to Pittsburgh, man. This is pretty good, man. You don’t have real far to go,” Tomlin said to Frazier in the post-selection phone call, according to video via the Steelers’ Twitter account.
