Mason’s hands aren’t always connected to his feet as a pass-blocker, which explains why he was beaten badly to the outside shoulder multiple times in Thursday’s preseason opener on sacks/pressures. From a pure technique standpoint, Mason wasn’t taking a second step with his left foot, leaving him vulnerable to the rush over the outside shoulder. How fast can Mason get those hands connected to his feet? The answer to that question will determine how quickly he emerges as a starter.
