For Alex Highsmith, 2023 was his year. He broke out in a big way, ending the season with a career-high 14.5 sacks and obliterating his goal of reaching double-digits. Though he was a Pro Bowl snub, he had a fantastic season and is in-line to get paid handsomely because of it this offseason, potentially in the next few weeks before training camp begins.
Bettering his production in 2023 will be a tall task. But former Pittsburgh Steelers’ cornerback Bryant McFadden thinks Highsmith is capable of doing it. He joined Will Brinson and Ryan Wilson on their CBS Sports “All-32” podcast to argue why Highsmith will be better this fall.
