What you have to do is take the hit.
McCluster is faster than Smith. So it's only across the body once Dex is even with Smith. Smith has to extend his arm for the short flip and take the hit.
Now it's pre-season , so you're not trying to take unnecessary knocks.
So in that respect, I get it. But in terms of a football play?
There's a play to me made there. That's what you guys brought him in to do.
