Right tackle redux

With Mr. Colon out for the season a lot of names were bandied about as possible replacements, and one of those names was Flozell Adams, formerly of the Dallas Cowboys and current free agent.

It seemed far-fetched that the Steelers would have any real interest in Mr. Adams; but proving once again that I do not know as much as I would like to think I do Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is reporting (on PG+, subscription required) that Mr. Adams has visited the Steelers' offices "took a physical today and could be signed."

The running game just took a body blow

According to ESPN Willie Colon suffered a ruptured achilles tendon while doing agility drills on Monday.

Any thoughts of having Maurkice Pouncey move into center this upcoming season will most certainly be abandoned, and the question becomes whether or not he will be a capable replacement for Mr. Colon.
