Steelers' Danny Crossman Reveals A Hidden Hurdle In Rookie's Return Game
The Pittsburgh Steelers have spent seven games discovering that a return can go wrong before the football ever reaches the man paid to run with it. The Pittsburgh Steelers' Special Teams Coordinator, Danny Crossman, has revealed that the team's performance in a recent game against the New Orleans Saints was not without fault. The team had only two punt opportunities and one was complicated by a penalty, while a slip disrupted the timing on a kickoff return. Despite this, Crossman believes rookie Kaden Wetjen is beginning to recognize opportunities more effectively. He also highlighted that the return unit had only 13 yards on their only official punt return, while 13 yards was useful field position. The Steelers' decision to invest in Wetjen in the fourth round of the season was made with the expectation that special teams would become a weapon for the team. The issue is whether this progressable improvement becomes dependable before another mistake costs another field position, according to McCarthy.
