Two words define Kevin Dotson’s personal goals for improvement in his game entering his second season in the league for the Pittsburgh Steelers: aggression and conditioning. Coming off of an encouraging rookie season, during which he offered four quality starts, he now enters a full-time starting role at left guard in the wake of Matt Feiler’s free agency departure.
Asked yesterday what his focus was on this offseason in terms of his play, he said, “I want to be more of that aggressive guy. I’m kind of aggressive already, but I want to be that guy that they [think], ‘he’s gonna do extra, you need to make sure you’re ready for this game’-type of guy for the defensive line”.
