Let the hitting begin!

Coach Porter may have wished HE had pads on when he was hit with the Heyward Chest Bump last season!

The Steelers had their first practice in pads on Wednesday.

From Defensive Coordinator Keith Butler:

I wanted to see some physicality out of our guys We want to be pretty good against the run and we were for the most part. We want to rush the quarterback. When he has to hold onto the ball we want to be able to hit him. We want to be able to do that when we’re rushing four.

Fan Zack Boring snapped this shot of 97:
