Zach Banner On Fun-Loving Personality: ‘I Really Don’t Want People Thinking I’m A Dipsh-t’

Zach Banner is certainly an interesting character. He’s as liable to make you laugh your butt off as he is to knock you on it. And that’s the essence of the 6’8” tackle, who is now in his second season with the Pittsburgh Steelers (and third overall).

Banner elevated his game this offseason, and himself to the top gameday backup tackle position, though when the Steelers called upon a backup to start a game, it was Chukwuma Okorafor getting the nod. Part of the reason for that was because simply Banner is a valued commodity in his role as a tackle-eligible tight end.
