Big things for No. 10

One thing that has become quite evident at OTAs is Martavis Bryant is a beast. Has taken it to another level. #Steelers

Talk is cheap when players talk about the work they've put in during the offseason, but second year WR Martavis Bryant seems ready to shut up and prove how dominant he truly can be.

Ben Roethlisberger is ultimately the four-star general of the offense, but he is also the commanding officer of the entire team. With Roethlisberger and Haley on the same page, this season could be another record-breaking season for the offense.

Best catch at Steelers OTA 8 was by far by Kaboly. One-handed snag off deflection in back of end zone from Ben. Haley:"Hey Mark, I see you."
