In terms of the nicest, I\u2019d say Isaiahh Loudermilk is near the top of the list in terms of Steelers players I\u2019ve spoken to in that environment. Justin Fields and Russell Wilson were both really giving with their time, as well. <\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">As a kid, the first time I went to training camp was in 2014, and I believe the first player who signed my Terrible Towel was Cam Thomas \u2013 former defensive tackle. I then made sure he started in Madden because of that. The first player I ever interviewed was Austin Ekeler in 2020. I was still a junior at Slippery Rock. The pandemic had just started, and players didn\u2019t really have anything going on, so they were much more open to doing media stuff. Michael Vick is still the interview I hold above any other player.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Scroll down to the comment section below to weigh in with your experiences.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><em><strong>Let us know what you think in the comments<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0<strong><em>Be sure to bookmark Behind the Steel Curtain for all the latest news, breakdowns, and more!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.behindthesteelcurtain.com\/pittsburgh-steelers-news\/166826\/star-afc-receiver-emerges-as-surprise-trade-target-for-steelers-brian-thomas-jr-jacksonville-jaguars\">Star AFC receiver emerges as surprise trade target for Steelers<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.behindthesteelcurtain.com\/pittsburgh-steelers-news\/166805\/patrick-graham-reveals-why-he-took-steelers-dc-job-las-vegas-raiders\">Patrick Graham reveals why he took Steelers DC job<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.behindthesteelcurtain.com\/pittsburgh-steelers-news\/166753\/latest-aaron-rodgers-report-gives-steelers-fans-unfortunate-deja-vu-jeremy-fowler-espn\">Latest Aaron Rodgers report gives Steelers fans unfortunate deja vu<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.behindthesteelcurtain.com\/pittsburgh-steelers-news\/166700\/aaron-rodgers-unlikely-to-return-to-steelers-nfl-insider-reports-aditi-kinkhabwala\">Aaron Rodgers unlikely to return to Steelers, NFL insider reports<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.behindthesteelcurtain.com\/pittsburgh-steelers-news\/166679\/former-steelers-safety-likely-to-be-traded-minkah-fitzpatrick#comments\">Former Steelers safety likely to be traded<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u200b<a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/articles\/ever-met-steelers-player-coach-153000649.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"\">https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/articles\/ever-met-steelers-player-coach-153000649.html<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PITTSBURGH, PA &#8211; OCTOBER 18: Mike Vick #2 of the Pittsburgh Steelers looks to pass against the Arizona Cardinals at Heinz Field on October 18,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1163152","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sports","wpcat-1-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1163152","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1163152"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1163152\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1163152"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1163152"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1163152"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
