Ray-Ray McCloud is the Miguel Sano of baseball. Lots of big plays. Lots of negative ones. Hoping that baseball analogy lands. Tried to think of Pittsburgh Pirates players to compare to but that would require the Pirates to have actual talent. Which they do not.
Anyway. As only special teams coordinator Danny Smith can articulate, he praised the job McCloud’s done as the Steelers’ return man this season but recognized the feast/famine outcome of his game.
“Ray-Ray’s a great guy and Ray-Ray’s a special guy and Ray-Ray is very talented and Ray-Ray has had a good year and Ray-Ray adds a dimension and we really hadn’t had,” Smith told Chris Adamski and the Pittsburgh media in a rare press conference Thursday.
