Description
Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's about kick and put returns.
The Steelers have a solid punt returner in Calvin Austin III and seem to have a quality backup in rookie Ke'Shawn Williams. Willams also worked as a kick returner for Danny Smith's unit, something that has been historically very rare.
Why do teams use different players for kick and punt returns and what makes for a good return man? Alan breaks it down.
