Steelers TEs working today on YAC drills. That’s been a repeated focus of this team at camp this year. We’re one of the worst team in the YAC department a year ago.

Steelers defense busts the coverage with Wallace and Norwood on the same side. Allen Robinson breaks open for the TD from Pickett.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 4, 2023
Kenny Pickett on a play action fake. Targets for George Pickens and it’s broken up by Wallace but Pickens toe taps for the catch and celebrates.
But Pickens gets called for illegal touching it seems.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 4, 2023
Kenny Pickett finds Diontae Johnson on a pivot route working against Patrick Peterson. Touchdown.

— Ray Fittipaldo (@rayfitt1) August 4, 2023
Trubisky gets to step up in the pocket and fires over the middle towards Miles Boykin but Madre Harper breaks it up.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 4, 2023
Offense with their best performance in seven shots in a long time. They won 5-2 today. Kenny Pickett went 3/4, Trubisky 2/3.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 4, 2023
Allen Robinson makes a great toe tapping grab on a slot fade. Kenny Pickett with a dime over the top of Duke Dawson.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 4, 2023
George Pickens dusted Patrick Peterson on a slant. Pickens had huge separation. Walked into the endzone.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 4, 2023
Gunner Olszewski is dusting basically everyone he faces in one on ones.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Diontae Johnson with a toe tapping grab in the back of the end zone over Chandon Sullivan. Good throw by Pickett too.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Keeanu Benton just bullies Mason Cole in the linemen run blocking drills. Benton forklifted him.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
George Pickens against Lego Wallace. Pickett throws a fade and Pickens makes a fading away, leaping grab and toe taps for a touchdown. Wow.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Rodney Williams showing out in the TE and RB drills. Running crisp routes, consistently separating. Just caught a 35 yard wheel route for a TD.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Breiden Fehoko is dominating this linemen double team drills. Split Dotson and Cole first rep. Comes back next rep and throws a guard to the ground and swims through. His niche is so easily spotted. He’s GOOD at that man.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Broderick Jones’s foot speed for his size is wild

Steelers under center. Play action out of a stacked set to the right with Freiermuth as H-Back. Hits Diontae Johnson on a dig route.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Darnell Washington and Pat Freiermuth 12 personnel 🚨🚨
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Steelers run a yankee concept. Calvin Austin runs a post route deep and Mitch Trubisky airs it out. Complete. 60 yard completion in the air. Huge play.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Nick Herbig just flattened a man. Jeez.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Kendrick Green is playing fullback 🚨🚨
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Play Action rollout and Rudolph hits the FULLBACK KENDRICK GREEN in the flat. Goes for 7 yards. This is a new era.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
FULLBACK Kendrick Green gets sent in motion on a sweep and absolutely destroys Toby Ndukwe. Just sent him to the ether. Greg Bell bounces the run for 10 yards.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Exciting final two reps for Kendrick Green in the first 11-on-11.
First he lines up in the backfield as a fullback, catches a pass and picks up a couple yards, then he lays down a nice lead block on the final play.
— Brooke Pryor (@bepryor) August 5, 2023
This is a great practice for Calvin Austin, wins on the sail route 30 yards down field with Mitch Trubisky throwing a dot.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023

— Brooke Pryor (@bepryor) August 5, 2023
No one’s been able to block Nick Herbig…..except Broderick Jones. Stoned him as he tried his ghost move.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
Nick Herbig beats Chuks Okorafor on what would’ve been a sack. Man, T.J. Watt taught him that ghost move and it’s been money since.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 5, 2023
That’s all from Friday Night Lights. Physical, fun practice. Good day for the offense. Looked about as well oiled as they have all camp.
