No. 66 · 3rd season

McCormick made a list that doesn't hand out participation trophies

Some recognition comes with a press release and a nice photo. This one you have to earn by actually being different.

Mason McCormick plays offensive line for the Pittsburgh Steelers — the people who do the hard, invisible work of keeping everyone else upright. You don't get your name called much in that role. You don't go viral. You just show up and do the job well enough that people eventually notice.

PFF's All-Breakout team is a list of players who genuinely surprised — whose 2025 performance was a step above what anyone had reason to expect. Getting named to it means the tape made the argument for you.

For a lineman, that kind of recognition lands differently. There's no highlight reel, no big stat to point at. Just film. Just the work.

Now there's a name attached to it.
