The Pittsburgh Steelers managed to guard the soccer once more this week, and that helped make them a win. Nonetheless, they nonetheless made errors. The Broncos greatest alternative got here when Zach Frazier snapped the ball earlier than Justin Fields was prepared. Jaylen Warren recovered the ball, and the whole lot was advantageous, nevertheless it virtually proved expensive. Regardless of that mistake, Frazier nonetheless appears to be ok with his progress.
Showing on the KDKA Nightly Sports activities Name present, Frazier was requested about his consolation degree in solely his second sport.
“I really feel comfy on the market,” Frazier mentioned. “It’s positively slowing down and I’m feeling increasingly more comfy.”
Frazier was an skilled participant in school, collaborating in 47 video games over 4 years, so regardless that he’s a rookie, he’s nonetheless received loads of expertise beneath his belt. It’s confirmed early on, together with his degree of play not matching that of a typical rookie. It’s solely been two video games, however Frazier has been a mauler to this point.
That doesn’t imply he’s been good, although. There have been some points with exchanges between Frazier and Justin Fields in Week 1, and that fumbled snap in opposition to the Broncos might have been expensive. It’s unclear if that problem was utterly Frazier’s fault, however the Steelers received’t hold getting so fortunate with these gaffs. He’s nonetheless a rookie, although, and it seems like he’s settling in additional as time goes on.
The Steelers are going to wish Frazier to remain comfy, too. They’ve made it clear by means of two weeks that their offensive identification is working the soccer, and Frazier has been an enormous a part of that. Frazier may not have even performed but had Nate Herbig not gotten injured, however he’s answered the decision to this point.
There are nonetheless loads of video games left, so we’ll see if Frazier can proceed together with his constructive performances and clear up among the snapping points. The Steelers have been in determined want of a high quality heart since Maurkice Pouncey retired, and they might be thrilled if Frazier might fill that function. He could by no means be the identical caliber of participant that Pouncey was, however he’s been adequate to this point. We’ll see how he develops as time goes on.
