The Pittsburgh Steelers skill position players had far too many drops during the regular season and that’s certainly an understatement. In total, and according to Pro Football Focus, that number was 41 and that includes the team’s playoff loss to the Cleveland Browns. The Steelers wide receiver group was responsible for 27 of those 41 drops in 2020.
On Thursday, Steelers wide receivers coach Ike Hilliard was asked about the large number of drops his unit had in 2020 and if he knows why it happened and if anything can be done this offseason to limit that number in 2021.
