At 6’5” it’s always a surprise to me when I see Edmunds get caught moving into “no man’s land”, losing gap integrity & allowing backs to cut back into the hole he vacated. This is why we often see a desperate Edmunds arm tackle attempt from behind.
If the kid learned to be more patient and disciplined he could make a late break towards the runner and use his shear force to knock a runner down, even if he didn’t hit squarely hit the runner. Is this a coaching issue, or more on the player?
