It's just football in shorts, but Jerry Bernard is really showing up at Steelers OTAs in a good way that could make him in the rookie of year conversation for the Steelers.

We'll talk about that with Jenna Harner.

I'm Chris Carter.

It's the Lockdown Steelers podcast.

Let's get into it.

You are Locked on Steelers, your daily Pittsburgh Steelers podcast, part of the Locked-on

Podcasts network, your team every day.

Hello and welcome to the Locked-on Steelers podcast. I'm your host, Chris Carter, but you're a daily dose of all things in the Pittsburgh Steelers. We thank you for making us your first listen every day because we're your team every day. We got a lot to get into today. Caleb Johnson, not to be lost in the running back shuffle. We'll talk about where he fits in with those Aaron Rogers, playing to quote unquote mentor, but in a certain way for Will Howard and Drew Aller.

We'll talk about that. But the thing I wanted to lead off with is going to be Jerry Bernard because as you guys have, you have been following my reporting throughout OTAs, the rookie receiver out of Alabama truly continues to impress through the rookie camp, through OTAs.

And yes, it's just football in shorts.

But as far as learning the brand new offense, he seems to be fitting in very well when he's

been pushed to chat and challenge so far to discuss all of that.

We have the amazing Jenna Harner from 1011 WPXI.

Jenna, I say right now, if someone was to create gambling odds on who could win Steelers

rookie of the year, Jerry Bernard would be like a minus 5,000 because everyone's

talking about him, you know, out of all the guys that they picked early, he's the primary

one that's starting with, that's playing on the first team.

And I also say that he looks the most impressive in this early stage of the offseason.

Yeah, I completely agree with you.

And I think, you know, obviously him being a skill position player probably has something

to do with that as well.

But he has been impressive.
