According to Colts.com’s Andrew Walker, Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus described new All-Pro defensive tackle DeForest Buckner’s role as the ‘three-technique’ in his defense during ‘Colts Chat’ on Wednesday night (which was exclusively available to Colts’ season ticket holders):
“That’s the defensive tackle that lines up on the outside shade of the guard, in-between the guard and the tackle,” Eberflus said.
“Because of (Buckner’s) penetration in that B-gap, that sets up a lot of things,” Eberflus added.
