When the Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Kendrick Green out of Illinois in the 2021 NFL draft, they got themselves a very good guard. So what did they do? Immediately try to turn him into a center. With only four starts at center under his belt in college, the Green experiement was Pittsburgh was a failure in every way.
Green talked about the failed experiment at training camp and made it clear he didn’t even like playing center last season. “To be honest, I didn’t really like playing center, but it is what it is,” Green said. “I’m happy to get back to what I did.”
