Troy Polamalu - Defensive Back

Troy Polamalu, Troy Polamalu is one of the most exceptional players in the game. On the Steelers defense, Polamalu is assigned huge portions of the field. He may line up right next to a defensive tackle only to drop back and cover a deep route or he could start off in the secondary and launch himself into the backfield on a blitz. His football intelligence level is high and his intensity is nothing short of phenomenal. Polamalu likes to lay big, jarring hits and sometimes this tackling approach can get him in trouble. He's just so aware, all the time, of exactly what's going on and where he needs to be. That's what makes him one of the most electrifying players to watch on Sundays.
