Offensive line coach Andy Heck was asked what he thought about rookie right tackle, Eric Fisher’s development this year.

“Eric (Fisher) has continued to work every week. He had a couple of setbacks with his bumps and bruises, but I think he’s feeling good right now. He’s put together a couple of good weeks. I really like the way he’s finishing in the run game, and I’ve seen some steady improvement in his pass protection as well.”

That’s high praise, considering Pro Football Focus gave Fisher his highest grade of the season against the Buffalo Bills with a +2.
