Player: Damontae Kazee
Position: Safety
Experience: 6 Years
Free Agent Status: Unrestricted
2022 Salary Cap Hit: $760,000
2022 Season Breakdown:
Targeted as one of three potential safeties the Pittsburgh Steelers were hoping to sign, Damontae Kazee signed shortly after the 2022 NFL Draft. He did so even after the Steelers re-signed starting strong safety Terrell Edmunds, and for only the veteran minimum.
Whether or not there was ever any chance of a competition for the starting job is hard to say because Minkah Fitzpatrick missed time, which allowed Kazee to run with the starting lineup, but then was injured at the end of the preseason.
