PITTSBURGH -- To Steelers tackle Troy Fautanu, there's no such thing as a "natural position."
That's a good mentality, because after spending two seasons working at right tackle, the 2024 first-round pick is on the move again.
And he's not alone.
Through the first two weeks of organized team activities, Fautanu and Mason McCormick, who played mostly at right guard in 2024 and 2025, have primarily worked on the left side during portions of practices open for media viewing, while one-time left tackle Dylan Cook and guard Spencer Anderson have been on the right.
"I've had a lot of talks with the coaches," Fautanu said last week. "Right now it's still kind of up in the air. First day of OTAs is just kind of getting out there. Obviously the past couple of weeks [I've] been flipping back and forth, just trying to get comfortable. But obviously if they ask me to play that, I'm going to play."
"... If you work hard enough at something, you have enough reps, you're going to get good at it. So obviously I played right for two years and thousands and thousands of reps doing that. I got really comfortable there, but if I'm being asked to move to the left, then I can do it."
