If you don’t closely follow the Pittsburgh Steelers, you might think special teams coordinator Danny Smith’s defining characteristic is his habit of chewing gum on the sideline. It’s hard to miss. TV cameras love following Smith around on the sideline in big moments. They also love capturing Smith getting mobbed by his players after a big special teams play.
And those plays have been happening at a frequent pace this year. The latest example? Cleveland Browns WR/PR Kadarius Toney muffed a punt in the dying moments of Sunday’s game. And Steelers WR Ben Skowronek pounced on it, helping secure the win.
