Steelers

Steelers HC Mike Tomlin told reporters on Tuesday that he has faith in Chris Hubbard to fill in at right tackle for Marcus Gilbert, who received a four-game suspension on Monday for a PED violation.

“Sometimes you’re faced with adversity and the things that you do in terms of how you respond define you,” Tomlin said, via Joe Rutter of triblive.com. “Thankfully for us, Chris Hubbard playing is nothing new for us. He’s played a lot this year. He’s done an awesome job of upholding the standard.

“From that standpoint, I’m excited for him and excited to watch him meet the standard of expectation.”
