Mike Tomlin: 'Joe Haden is a complete player'

Tomlin: 'Haden is a complete player'

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has heralded opposition star Joe Haden as one of the most "complete" cornerbacks in the NFL.

The Steelers take on Haden's Cleveland Browns on Sunday in a crucial divisional clash in the extremely tight AFC North, with both sides still in the playoff picture.

Tomlin told Steelers.com: "Joe's feel for the game and his peripheral vision are not good but exceptional. He has the ability to feel the receiver and see the quarterback in zones.

"He has the ability to feel the quarterback and see the receiver himself in man. He sees more than most, and that allows him to get breaks on the ball, to catch the ball. He's a very complete cornerback."

Haden was the Browns' first-round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft.
