Sometimes, coaches can't even read them. My philosophy is that nobody has anything they don't need. Absorbing too much of that stuff works in a negative way. And, only certain players need to know roles of their teammates. The running backs and receivers ought to know their linemen's formations.

It's a totally different thing on defense. Changes in society are reflected in the work habits of today's players.

They're impatient and they don't like to read.
