Zach Gentry Sees Himself As An Ascending Pass Game Option: ‘I Think I’m Very Capable In That Field’

First impressions tend to leave a lasting impression that is hard to displace. That is the case for many Steelers fans, including myself, regarding TE Zach Gentry who appeared to be a bust after his first couple seasons in the NFL. A former fifth-round draft pick out of Michigan back in 2019, Gentry struggled to adjust to the NFL game initially coming out of college, playing 49 offensive snaps in his rookie season and had a knee sprain result in him landing on IR in 2020 having only played 20 offensive snaps.

Zach Gentry is a rigid player whose height hinders his release, but this is a pretty hands catch.
