I'm not sure that much muscle translates to getting injured less in the grand scheme of things. Not really my realm though so I dunno.Speed is useless if you're injured

Maybe, maybe not. I think at his normal stature, a little extra muscle isn't going to hurt in that regardI'm not sure that much muscle translates to getting injured less in the grand scheme of things. Not really my realm though so I dunno.Speed is useless if you're injured

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner revealed Sunday he was in a dire situation when he was diagnosed with cancer in 2015.
Conner, who received his diagnosis while he was playing football at the University of Pittsburgh, said on rapper Mike Stud's podcast he would feel tired at night but couldn’t fall asleep, according to Steelers Depot.
“I get some tests done,” he said. “I got a tumor surrounding my heart, bro. My heart, I got tumors growing all around it, pressing on it...doctor told me I had about a week left. He said you got about a week if you didn’t get this treated. At the rate it was growing.”
Conner received chemotherapy while rehabbing a torn ACL. He admitted he was worried about sharing the news with his four brothers.
“My brothers would kill for me,” he said. “My oldest one, I’m the youngest of five, and all of them would do anything in the world. My security, my protection, my right hand. How would they feel if their youngest brother wasn’t here? How would they feel if their youngest brother died?”
Conner said if it wasn’t for the knee injury, he may not have gone to the doctor.

That's a "show me" extension for sure.

Yeah. He and Ben are now both locked in until 2021.

Nobody should be complaining about Ben's contract, especially coming off a career season stat-wise. Tomlin's, though...

Tomlin won't be gone until Ben retires.
2019 Steelers Offseason/Draft Thread
Either that or that's the "you'll retire the same time as the QB" so we can start completely fresh.That's a "show me" extension for sure.

Perhaps it's a "make the playoffs first" extension.

They'll use the "he didn't get fired we just didn't renew his contract"Either that or that's the "you'll retire the same time as the QB" so we can start completely fresh.That's a "show me" extension for sure.

AB Jr in the making

Yeah but what about his social media?!?!

JuJu is basically the prototype of building your brand in the athlete's world. This dude makes so many choices aimed at not hurting his brand, I suspect he'll actually hold himself accountable.

NFL Top 100 had Roethlisberger as the 10th rated QB. He was behind Wilson, Goff, and Rivers.
I feel like that's off, but can't really say why.
