Dave and Buster’s, a restaurant that is more like a Chuck E. Cheese for adults, was the site for at least one team’s OTA session on Monday.

The Pittsburgh Steelers decided to spend some time building team chemistry and former Tennessee Volunteer offensive lineman Ramon Foster was front and center for the day’s acclivities.
Foster and some of the other Steelers took part in a NASCAR racing game, after Foster proclaimed his victory, a claim later disputed by the Steelers official Twitter account.
Looked like a 3 way tie for 2nd to us. @NASCAR we'll just stick to football @RamonFoster @KelvinBeachumJr @plaxicoburress

What was the one thing on which they could all agree?
Apparently Plaxico Burress races dirty.
Fellow offensive lineman Kelvin Beachum agreed with Foster’s assessment of Burress.
@RamonFoster @NASCAR @plaxicoburress @steelers I agree with that statement!!!!

It’s nice to break the monotony of OTA’s, but now it’s back to work for the Steelers and Foster. The former Vol will be looking to continue his solid play on the line, he’s started 30 of the 31 games he’s played in during the last two seasons.
Just yet another example of a former Vol doing big things in the NFL.
