Description

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's a missing piece of the team's passing offense in tight end Jonnu Smith.


Smith has been targeted 16 times, but it's all been underneath routes. Those routes have given him an average of 4.5 yards per separation, which is best in the league, but he has a total of just 71 receiving yards. Can he maintain some of that separation on longer routes down the field, giving the Steelers offense a much-needed boost? Alan breaks it down.
