Pittsburgh Steelers FS Minkah Fitzpatrick went nearly two full years without recording an interception. What’s particularly remarkable about that fact is that, just prior to his drought, he led the league in interceptions. Of course, he does a great deal more than pick off passes. Still, he has seen his impact lessen and the outside pressure rise.
In fact, many talking heads are debating whether the Steelers should part ways with Fitzpatrick this year. And a lot of them don’t seem to always make a distinction between trading and releasing him. Despite a downturn by his standards, though, most still begrudgingly agree the best move is to retain him.
