The Pittsburgh Steelers used draft resources on Pressley Harvin III because they believed he was capable of handling the punting and holding jobs. What the fans want to see is him throwing passes. On gadget plays, that is, something that he does have on his college tape. But he’s not sure if he’ll get such an opportunity in the NFL.
“I don’t know if [special teams coordinator Danny] Smith wants to, but I would love to again”, the rookie punter told reporters after practice today when he was asked if he would be throwing any passes this year.
