Troy Fautanu: Everything you need to know

Fautanu (knee) participated in Pittsburgh's OTAs on Tuesday. Fautanu was the Steelers' first-round draft pick in 2024 but suffered a knee injury during the team's Week 2 win over Denver that landed him on injured reserve for the remainder of his rookie season. Now healthy again, he should serve as the team's starting right tackle during the upcoming campaign.

Fautanu (knee) told reporters Monday that he will be "100 percent" for OTAs this offseason, Mark Kaboly of 93.7 The Fan Pittsburgh reports. Fautanu, a 2024 first-round pick from Washington, sustained a season-ending knee injury in the Steelers' Week 2 win over the Broncos. However, his comments Monday suggest that he'll be ready to participate in Pittsburgh's offseason activities, typically beginning in late May. Fautanu is expected to compete with Broderick Jones for the Steelers' top right tackle spot once he returns to the field.
