Over the last few seasons, there’s been one true constant with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and that’s been young safety Terrell Edmunds covering tight ends.
Throughout his career, Edmunds has struggled in coverage, failing to make plays on the football and often looking uncomfortable turning and running. That’s changed a bit in the last few years in Pittsburgh where the Steelers have put him in a more comfortable role in the box more of a strong safety, which coincides with the Steelers’ acquisition of free safety Minkah Fitzpatrick in 2019.
With that shift into more of a box safety role, Edmunds has been tasked with covering tight ends.
