Levon Kirkland relembra o domínio de Kordell Stewart nos treinos como wide receiver

O ex-linebacker do Pittsburgh Steelers, Levon Kirkland, disse que Kordell Stewart teria sido um wide receiver excepcional. Kirkland fez os comentários enquanto discutia os primeiros dias de Stewart na equipe.

Kirkland falou no canal do YouTube Coach Gibbs Defense Lab. Ele descreveu como um Stewart ainda novato dominava os treinos como wide receiver antes de transitar para outras funções. "Nós não conseguíamos marcar o cara", disse Kirkland. Ele acrescentou que o atletismo de Stewart levou os treinadores a colocá-lo no time titular para aproveitar suas habilidades. Stewart foi selecionado na segunda rodada em 1995. Como calouro, ele registrou 15 corridas para 86 jardas e um touchdown, além de 14 recepções para 235 jardas e um touchdown em 10 partidas. Os Steelers chegaram ao Super Bowl naquela temporada. Kirkland destacou o talento defensivo que Stewart enfrentava nos treinos, incluindo jogadores como Rod Woodson.
