Joe Haden Training And Talking Footwork To Combat Pass Interference Calls
Joe Haden’s too old? Doesn’t have the speed, can’t cover #1 receivers anymore? Don’t tell him that. Haden is evolving with the game. Sitting down on The Rich Eisen Show Monday afternoon, Haden talked about the importance of footwork to combat the league’s crackdown of pass interference calls.
“The game has changed so much from my rookie year when you could put hands on people,” Haden told Eisen. “You could low tug. Now you just have to really legitimately mirror them. It’s an offensive league. I love Coach Tomlin because he understands we’re at the disadvantage. We really just have to work feet, try to mirror the receiver.”
