"I knew it. You look huge," Wirfs responded before clarifying his remarks.
"No, I mean, you look great. You look like an absolute unit," Wirfs told the Steelers defensive lineman.
Wirfs also recalled Black's physical development during their time at Iowa, noting how much the defensive lineman had grown since his early college days.
The conversation took another humorous turn when Wirfs asked about the overalls Black wore for an Iowa game. Black revealed they were size 4XL, prompting Wirfs to tell him they looked good.
The NFL Films clip offers a candid look at the interactions between players, with Black's size standing out to one of the league's top offensive tackles.
