Social media, Lincoln Riley reaction to the Steelers selection of Tre Norwood

Social media reaction to the Pittsburgh Steelers selection of Tre Norwood in the seventh round of the 2021 NFL draft on Saturday.

The fifth and final Oklahoma Sooner selected in this week’s NFL draft was former defensive back Tre Norwood, who was taken with the 245th pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Oklahoma Sooners head coach Lincoln Riley released a statement on Stevenson’s selection.

“It was fun to see Tre bounce back from such a tough injury two years ago and really become a great player for us. He made a lot of big plays and made several big interceptions, especially this past season. I think he really settled into coach (Alex) Grinch’s defense and did a lot of outstanding things. I was always impressed by Tre’s work ethic and consistency, and I think what is also really going to help him in the NFL is the ability to play multiple positions. I’m very excited for his opportunity.”

Twitter had plenty of reaction to Norwood getting selected as well. Here are some of the highlights.
