Cam Sutton’s Return Could Help Free Up Minkah Fitzpatrick, Mike Tomlin Hints

Entering the season, Minkah Fitzpatrick talked about getting back to “Minkah ball,” and defensive coordinator Teryl Austin talked about putting him in better positions to make splash plays. While I think Fitzpatrick has played well overall, he hasn’t returned to making the splash plays that defined the first five seasons of his career.

His last interception was 20 games ago, or more if you count the games that he was inactive. It was Week 17 on Jan. 1, 2023, against the Baltimore Ravens at the tail end of the 2022 season.

Who was around in the secondary the last time Fitzpatrick made splash plays routinely?
