spots on the left side. 2020-21 AFCA Second Team All-American Jake Dixon signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers as an undrafted free agent, while Second Team All-NEC guard Roman Macek elected to forego his final year of eligibility to sign a developmental deal with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).
11. Jordan Tucker in at RT, Jake Dixon at LT. Pickett under center, 11 personnel. Teague again carry right side. No Durant in team so its the Warren/Teague show. He gets three here with Stephens helping in on the stop.
9. Stephens and Chris Steele the outside CBs. Third-team offensive line of: Jordan Tucker-Chris Owens-John Leglue-Chaz Green-Jake Dixon. Kenny Pickett in at QB. Teague up the middle. RonDell Carter from his LOLB spot and runs around the edge to wrap Master Teague up from behind for a gain of two.11. Doug Costin and Donovan Jeter the two DTs. Warren in the backfield. Teague carry right side. Carter gets off Jake Dixons block and makes the tackle at the line. A nice session for Carter in his second day with the team and first working in full.
teresting to see Trent Scott rotate with Joe Haeg at RT today. Didnt expect that but Scott has a long history with Pat Meyer so that may be helping his cause. Elsewhere on the line, rookie Jake Dixon has lined up all over so far and is trying to increase his versatility, as John Leglue did a year ago.
I expect camp fights and skirmishes. But this year has been weird. Carlos Davis racing off the sidelines to blindside Jake Dixon. Today, it was Cam Heyward vs Benny Snell and Calvin Austin vs T.J. Watt. Not exactly a same weight class fight.
Carlos Davis cheap shot on Jake Dixon the other day aside, hes looked explosive as a pass rusher in drills and in team. Dont forget about him in the DL room. Doug Costin also looking like a volleyball player with his batted down passes.
Some of the offensive linemen shifted during practice. OT Jake Dixon seeing work at RT and OG Chris Owens seeing work at center, though he played far more center than guard at Alabama. His center snaps today though seemed off the mark. Might have been rusty.11. Low snap from Chris Owens, getting his first camp reps at center. Pickett hits Mataeo Durant underneath who has to reach out for it and falls to the ground. Three-yard gain. Chaz Green at LT, Jake Dixon at RG.

Steelers camp: Kenny Pickett’s running for his life, and it’s not going well so far
We talk about it every night in meetings, said Jake Dixon, who is Picketts left tackle. We have to do our job so everybody else can do their jobs. Keeping the pocket clean for Kenny is an important job for the offensive line.
