There’s a couple things you have to know about Pittsburgh. They love their bridges, demand french fries on their sandwiches, and gotta have nose-busting safeties. I don’t know J.J. Wilcox’s stance on the first two but the last one, he can emphatically check off. Wilcox is another in a heavy-hitter type the Pittsburgh Steelers gravitate towards. But is there more to his game than that? Let’s check him out.
Run Support/Physicality
His strong suit, clearly. Downhill player who can close quickly and does well to fill the alley against the run. Hard hitter, impact tackler, sacrifices his body, similar to the way Mike Mitchell plays.
This is one of the first plays of Wilcox I watched, early in this past year’s matchup with the Steelers. Flat foot read on the goal line, driving on the throw, and planting David Johnson. Big hit..........
