‘Vicious Player:’ Andy Weidl Says Jalen Ramsey’s Physicality Is ‘Contagious’

The Pittsburgh Steelers do not ever want a repeat of their playoff loss to the Baltimore Ravens last season. The defense allowed 299 rushing yards in the 28-14 loss. It was a big part of their draft process. That’s why they took players like Derrick Harmon and Yayha Black. But it also was part of the reason they traded for CB Jalen Ramsey.

Now, I don’t know about you, but physicality isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when I think about elite corners. But according to Steelers assistant general manager Andy Weidl, Ramsey’s physical nature is having a positive affect on his teammates.
