Mike Tomlin is certainly a fan of wrestlers. The Steelers took three former high school wrestling standouts in the 2024 NFL draft: Zach Frazier, Payton Wilson and Logan Lee.
Frazier was the first one selected of the three in the second round, filling the Steelers’ gaping hole at the center position. Tomlin even touched on his wrestling background Saturday in his post-draft press conference.
“He’s a tough competitor. He was an instant contributor in Morgantown,” Tomlin said. “He’s got an awesome background from a ready perspective, a high school wrestling champ and [I’ve] got a lot of respect for that combat sport.
