Episode Notes

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Jenna Harner of WPXI-TV.

The Pittsburgh Steelers traded for DK Metcalf last year to make him their premier receiver of the offense. Now in his second year, will they unlock his true potential? Christopher Carter and Jenna Harner explore that question after Metcalf had the fewest receiving yards of his career last season. Can the answer be the Steelers' new receivers in Michael Pittman Jr. and Germie Bernard? Or in Mike McCarthy's new offense with Aaron Rodgers? And how high could Metcalf's potential reach when it comes to ranking among the NFL's best receivers? Also, while Troy Fautanu and Mason McCormick make up the left side of the new offensive line next to Zach Frazier, who will line up on the right side? Spencer Anderson and Dylan Cook appear to be the early options from OTAs and minicamp, but could Broderick Jones work his way back to being a starter this year? And could Max Iheanachor or Gennings Dunker eventually become rookie starters this season? Finally, Chris and Jenna take a call-in question as to whether the NFL will ever see another running back like Steelers legend Jerome Bettis again.
