Zach Banner ‘Like A Dog On A Leash’ At OTAs

While the Pittsburgh Steelers have a lot of questions surrounding their offensive line heading into the 2021 season, they also have several potential answers. That includes the return of Zach Banner to the right tackle position that he won during training camp last year.

Banner and Chukwuma Okorafor competed against one another for the right to start there in 2020, but after winning the job, the aforementioned suffered a torn ACL in the season opener after logging just 49 snaps. It was a gut-wrenching moment for the veteran making his first career start as an offensive lineman, but now eight months removed from surgery, he is chomping at the bit to get back.
