While the team works off any added holiday pounds over the long weekend we’ll be busy looking for mentions of your Black & Gold so we’ve got you covered. Here’s your Steelers Morning Huddle for Friday, Dec. 2nd.

Wanna fight?

Pittsburgh has enough trouble on their hands when they have to square off against the likes of Vontaze Burfict twice a year (if he’s not suspended for being a jagoff) but this week they’ll have to face off against Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr., who’ll fight anyone from a cornerback to a kicking net.

More from Steelers News

Mike Prisuta talked to cornerback Ross Cockrell about going up against an emotional guy like Beckham and trying to keep your cool.

"“Well yeah, just about every Sunday it gets like that. We’re out there, we’re pressing. We may not always get the coverage or it may not always be as fanatic, but it gets pretty physical out there on the outside. You’d be surprised, some of the things that happen when the refs and the cameras aren’t looking.” – Ross Cockrell"

Sweet cleats

Ben Roethlisberger showed a sneak peak of the custom cleats he’s wearing this weekend for the My Cleats: My Cause weekend in the NFL.

His cleats honor a Pittsburgh K-9 officer that was killed and the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

No limit locker room

Pittsburgh is a unique place. Yinzers have known that their whole lives but players are sharing with ESPN The Magazine just how unique their locker room is. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler talked to players about what they discuss with each other and how no topics out off limits for discussion.

Next: Steelers Game Day Grub

The guys talk about race, politics and even how Roethlisberger spends time with the kickers. Diverse bunch for sure.
