Kevin Dotson Never Got Comfortable At Left Guard During Injury-Plagued 2021 Season

The 2021 season certainly didn’t go well at all for Pittsburgh Steelers guard Kevin Dotson, who only managed to play in nine games in total because of an ankle injury suffered in Week 10. Dotson also started the 2021 season at left guard, a position that was still very foreign to him after mainly playing right guard for his entire college career. After the Steelers finished their first OTA practice of 2022 on Tuesday, Dotson, who is now in his third NFL season, talked about how challenging the 2021 season was for him.

“I worked on being on the left side during the offseason,” Dotson said, according to Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
