Steelers' Troy Fautanu Returns Healthy, Broderick Jones Moves Left Tackle

News summary

Pittsburgh Steelers' first-round pick Troy Fautanu is back on the field after a knee injury abruptly ended his rookie season early last year. The injury occurred during a practice drill, tearing the medial patellofemoral ligament and dislocating his kneecap, leading to surgery and a lengthy recovery. Fautanu described the mental challenges during rehabilitation, emphasizing the importance of focusing on day-to-day progress and the support of his family, especially his mother. With Fautanu healthy again, the Steelers have adjusted their offensive line by moving Broderick Jones back to his natural left tackle position, with Fautanu starting at right tackle. This lineup change is expected to strengthen the offensive line as both players return to their preferred roles. The Steelers expressed confidence in Fautanu's recovery, and he participated fully in the team's Organized Team Activities, signaling readiness for the upcoming season.
