Buccaneers Lineman Was Left Stunned After Steelers' Yahya Black Revealed True Weight
The Buccaneers tackle got a surprising answer from Pittsburgh's Yahya Black during a mic'd-up conversation.
During a mic d-up conversation between Pittsburgh Steelers rookie lineman Tristan Wirfs and rookie Tampa Bay Buccaneers tackle Yahya Black, the two players discussed their weight. Black, who was listed at 330 pounds on Pittsburgh's roster, confessed he weighed 370 pounds. Initially taken aback, Wirfs responded, "You look huge. Thank you.
Linemen banter is the best." Despite the initial shock, Wirfs reassured Black, saying, "No, I mean, you look great. You look like an absolute unit." The conversation then took a light-hearted turn when Wirfs asked about the oversize overalls Black wore for an Iowa game. When Black revealed they were size 4XL, Wirfs commented, "They look good."
The interaction between the two players, captured by NFL Films, showcased the camaraderie and humor that often develops among linemen in the NFL.
