Rookie LT Marcus Gilbert will likely get the start at left tackle Saturday night versus the Atlanta Falcons. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin did not rule out starter Jonathan Scott but he’s unlikely to play after doing limited work this week. The Steelers other options are veteran Trai Essex who resigned this week and Kyle Jolly who has taken some first team reps this week. However, Tomlin said neither are options to start. |
