The Steelers missed out on Ryan Kerrigan, but Justin Houston could be even better for Pittsburgh in 2021.

The Pittsburgh Steelers were apparently one of three teams trying to pursue former four-time Pro Bowl edge defender, Ryan Kerrigan, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Sadly, Kerrigan opted to sign with the Philadelphia Eagles. While I thought he could be had at a discount after sitting in the market for so long, I didn’t expect him to sign for as cheap as he did – a one-year contract worth up to $3.
