Let's see how long it takes before they go back and edit this...

Before an end can get after the quarterback, he has to first make certain a draw isn't coming through the "B" gap (between the guard and tackle). The end also has bootleg duty. If there's run action inside, the ends first reaction should be to sh** the "B" gap, and if nothing's coming, hustle back outside to contain the quarterback.

It's about halfway down the article

The title of the story fits too,lol

Defensive linemen do the dirty work in 3-4

Are you sure it's a typo? Maybe that's just the kids' new slang for having a bowel movement.

"Yo, wait up. I gotta go sh!t a B-gap."

I got nothin.

Maybe its a new strategy, create such a stench in the B-gap, that the running back doesn't want to go anywhere near it.

So, uh, did it say "sh**", "sh!t", or "shit"?

It actually did say it in the article, I just added the stars in there to replace it. They just corrected (guessing about 15 mins or so ago) it by taking the 's' away to make it say 'hit'.
