There’s a lot of ways Pittsburgh can choose to utilize Calvin Austin III’s 4.32 speed, and he told reporters today that there’s been an emphasis with getting him vertical and having him make plays over the top.
“I would say so. There’s definitely been an emphasis so I’ve made some plays down the field. Just gotta continue that,” Austin said via Steelers.com.
Alex Kozora praised Austin’s performance in the team’s Friday Nights Lights practice, and he seems like he’s been stringing solid performances together. If he can stake a claim for regular playing time with continued good performances at camp, Austin is going to be a game-changer for Pittsburgh’s offense.
