O setorista dos Pittsburgh Steelers, Mark Kaboly, expressou forte oposição à mudança do offensive tackle Troy Fautanu para a posição de guard. Kaboly afirmou que a equipe deve manter Fautanu na posição de right tackle, onde ele provou ser eficaz na temporada passada.
Kaboly fez os comentários nesta quarta-feira na 93.7 The Fan. Ele declarou que os Steelers já têm um jogador que demonstrou capacidade de atuar bem como tackle e que não vê motivo para movê-lo para o interior da linha ofensiva.
