For Steelers CB Artie Burns, Thursday is more than a meaningless final preseason game
Thursday the Pittsburgh Steelers play the Carolina Panthers in the final preseason game, but it is far from meaningless to rookie CB Artie Burns.There are few, if any, football games which carry less significance than the last game of the preseason.With the majority of starters being rested for the following week's regular season contest, most fans don't think twice about missing the game and just reading recaps of what went down on that particular night.

PITTSBURGH -- For half an hour Tuesday morning, Pittsburgh Steelers watched younger versions of the players they know and listen to as veterans bolt downfield in a series of Week 4 special teams reps.Mike Tomlin was trying to make a point before the team's Thursday 7:30 p.m. preseason finale on the road against the Carolina Panthers."I think it's important sometimes that the young guys get an opportunity to see that some of the guys that they look up to and they follow on a daily basis got their start and staked their claim on their roles within our group kind of in this game," Tomlin said.This is a yearly occurrence, said cornerback William Gay, who was one of the established starters on the film along with James Harrison, Lawrence Timmons and Antonio Brown.
