Going against one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL is helping Houston Texans cornerback Kamari Lassiter.
The Houston Texans started their draft class this offseason with Georgia cornerback Kamari Lassiter, and he will get to go against last year's top pick C.J. Stroud in practice all year long.
Lassiter, like Stroud, has a chance to be a plug-and-play kind of guy and make an immediate impact for Houston. Going up against Stroud in practice has helped Lassiter's growth as he embarks on his first training camp.“It just makes me so much better because my technique has to be sound every play because it is two-in-one. I am one-on-one with the receiver and then I have another match up with the quarterback, and the quarterback is elite," Lassiter said.
Stroud has talked about the concept of "iron sharpens iron" and this is another example of that. Stroud's level of play in practice helps make his teammates more prepared for the game on Sundays, and that's crucial for a franchise quarterback. If Lassiter can pick up a trick or two from playing against Stroud in training camp and practice throughout the season, he will only get better as the weeks go on.Jeremy Brener is an editor, writer and social media manager for several Fan Nation websites.
