The term “Swiss Army Knife” has gone from a noun, a physical object, to and adjective used to describe someone who can do a lot of things. This has even bled into the sport of football, and is a term Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin loves to use when describing players.
The latest player to be given the distinction of a “Swiss Army Knife” is the team’s 7th round draft pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, Tre Norwood.
Norwood, who comes to Pittsburgh via the Oklahoma Sooners, can play both cornerback and safety, and his versatility is something which he takes a serious amount of pride in.
