Once the “camp arm”, Skylar Thompson was arguably the Steelers’ best quarterback during the preseason, and his teammates have noticed. Capping off a strong run, he went 11-for-13 for 152 yards and a touchdown last night. Among his best connections has been with WR Scotty Miller, who spoke highly of him after the game.
“Skylar’s just a ball player”, Miller said of Thompson via the Steelers’ website, speaking with Missi Matthews. “He makes plays. He’s out there almost just playing backyard football, checking plays at the line. We all love playing with Skylar. We trust him.
