Problem With Steelers Secondary Isn't What You Think -- It's Worse
Alan Saunders says the problems exposed in the Pittsburgh Steelers secondary by the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday aren't what you think.
The Pittsburgh Steelers spent their 2025 offseason revamping their defense, keeping it the league’s most-expensive unit while attempting to tailor its talents to stop the Baltimore Ravens on the ground and slow down the Cincinnati Bengals through the air.
- The Steelers replaced All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick with a collection of journeymen.
- They reallocated resources to the cornerback position, spending $10 million in free agency on Darius Slay.
- They traded Fitzpatrick for Jalen Ramsey to go along with Joey Porter Jr., giving the team three starting-caliber cornerbacks.
The team attempted to tailor its talents to do things it failed to do down the stretch run of the 2024 season.
