James Washington Describes How To Beat Press Coverage

Coming off an uninspiring loss to the Buffalo Bills, the Pittsburgh Steelers know they need to be more physical. Not just the offensive and defensive lines either, though that’s where conventional wisdom usually directs its attention. As Mike Tomlin indicated during his Tuesday press conference, they need to be more physical on the outside. That includes receivers beating press coverage. And James Washington described how to win against it.

He broke down how to anticipate and how to beat it in speaking to the media on Wednesday.

“You’ve just got to check their feet, check their stance pre snap,” he said via the team website.
