As a fifth-round pick, Pittsburgh Steelers defensive lineman Yahya Black already has a leg up on most of his fellow rookie defensive linemen across the NFL thanks to the presence of an All-Pro and future Hall of Famer Cameron Heyward within his own position group.
With Heyward, Black — along with fellow rookie Derrick Harmon — has a built-in player-coach, one who has done it at the highest level for years and can help teach the young pieces the tricks of the trade, while also showing them how to take care of their body and prepare throughout the week to be ready for game days.
