0:00.0	Hey, guys.
0:11.8	I'm Dan Kavacharish with DK. Pittsburgh Sports.
0:13.9	This is the double shot of Steelers.
0:16.9	It comes your way at 4 p.m. Eastern Time live, YouTube, and, of course, on our app and website at D.K. Pittsburgh Sports.

1:39.2	that will allow him to play out the remainder of his career, his brilliant career in a Pittsburgh uniform.
1:48.8	T.J. is a stealer. T.J. is a stealer to the bone. Do you remember the reactions that I was having
