The more you can do, the better. In Week One, Pittsburgh Steelers RB Kenneth Gainwell did it all. Forcing a fumble on the kickoff coverage team that served as a real turning point to beat the New York Jets, Gainwell is happy to make the play. He’s excited to try and do it again.

“It’s real fun to do that,” Gainwell said via the team’s website. “It’s real fun to be an offensive player that’s playing a lot of snaps on offense and go down to make a tackle. White shirt tackles are what they talk about a lot here.
