Mendenhall to be Featured on NFL Show

The Steelers posted on their webpage today that their rookie running back, Rashard Mendenhall will be one of five rookies featured on "Hey Rookie, Welcome to the NFL," which is scheduled to air on Tuesday, September 2nd at 8 PM on ESPN2 and will be shown again on Thursday, September 4th at 3 PM again on ESPN2.

The cameras follow each selected rookie from draft day to the final cuts for an exclusive inside look at a rookie's journey through this exciting and stressful experience along with his life outside of football for a rare look at a more personal side like what they enjoy doing in their free time - for Mendenhall, that includes playing the saxophone and clarinet.

“They came to my house before I left for training camp,” said Mendenhall. “They came for a few visits to see what was going on. They talked to me a few times during training camp.”
