Shazier, Harrison not at Steelers' OTAs for second straight day
Steelers linebackers Ryan Shazier and James Harrison were not in attendance for Thursday's OTA practice, the second straight absence for the pair, according to Mark Kaboly of the Tribune-Review.
No Harrison and shazier at OTA 6. #Voluntary

While Harrison's absence from a voluntary workout isn't really newsworthy considering his veteran status, Shazier's is bound to raise a few eyebrows.
Just two days ago, Shazier was talking about wiping the slate clean after a disappointing rookie season. One would think the best way to accomplish that is to spend every second possible on the practice field with new defensive coordinator Keith Butler. Bear in mind that Shazier could have a legitimate reason for his lack of attendance.
We'll see if he makes it back next week for the final four OTA sessions of the offseason.
