Zach takes us behind the scenes and tells us how everything came together for him.  Zach tells us that the Steelers had been telling him they wanted him back and said to hold off until free agency, then he got a call about two weeks ago from Mike Tomlin as he reassured him that they'd bring him back.  Ben also gave Zach a call to tell him everything would get handled and to sit tight.  It's that kind of stuff that makes Zach really motivated to be the best player he can be for this team.  That being said, Zach says there were other offers out there that made him think he might have to put on another teams jersey next year.  Zach won the right tackle job last year and tells us that he has played right tackle pretty much his entire college and pro career, but he'll do whatever the team asks him to.
