There will be several Pittsburgh Steelers under the microscope in 2015, particularly on the defensive side of the football. Ryan Shazier is among that group, a rookie year marred by injury that never let us fully see the type of player he could become.
Like any second year player, you’re looking for improvement in almost every area. But the one that should be singled out is his ability to work off blocks in the run game. That is a fairly well-known weakness by the casual fan.
Upon revisiting the Coaches Tape, Shazier actually did a good enough job of being able to shed blocks from lineman coming directly at him.
