Watching these moments where the newest members of the Steelers family get the call from Mike Tomlin never fails to choke us up. This one is no different.
Illini football posted a video of when offensive lineman Kendrick Green’s phone rang and his new head coach was on the other end.
A smile immediately came to Green’s face when he heard Tomlin’s voice no doubt asking him if he was ready to be a Pittsburgh Steeler.
What Green said to Tomlin was beeped out, but I think it was, “Let’s fudging go”.
It’s such a happy moment that rookies will remember for the rest of their lives.
Welcome to Pittsburgh, Kendrick!
