Steelers Resurrect Wildcat Out Of Desperation For Offensive Spark

Back in his rookie season, the Pittsburgh Steelers got creative at times with running back Le’Veon Bell, and during a few games out of the year, offensive coordinator Todd Haley chose to line up the rookie rusher under center in the Wildcat formation.

It was a new look for the Steelers at the time that caught everybody by surprise when they first unveiled it against the Ravens, but it was used sparsely throughout the rest of the season, and, if I’m not mistaken (please correct me if I am), they put the idea entirely on the shelf last year.
