On his weekly Chipped Ham and Football podcast, Post-Gazette Steelers insider Brian Batko welcomes former Super Bowl champion Trai Essex to weigh in on the team's offensive line and QB situations. Are the issues we've seen from OT Broderick jones in the NFL preseason fixable? Or genuine cause for concern? Is Dan Moore Jr. underrated as a tackle option along with Troy Fautanu? And what will it take for the group as a whole to get on track under new OC Arthur Smith?
Our duo tackles those topics, then ponders how much Justin Fields is really pushing Russell Wilson for the starting QB job in the eyes of head coach Mike Tomlin.
