Film Room: Benny Snell Short-Yardage Football On Display Against Chiefs

Statistically speaking, there hasn’t been a lot to get excited about through two preseason games in regard to Pittsburgh Steelers rookie running back Benny Snell Jr. After all, Snell, the team’s fourth-round draft pick this year out of Kentucky, has carried the football 20 times for 42 yards, an average of just slightly over 2 yards per rush. While those stats aren’t great, Saturday night against the Kansas City Chiefs we saw Snell excel some in an area that he also excelled in during his college career at Kentucky and that’s short-yardage situations.
