The Pittsburgh Steelers have yet to find a starting-level defensive lineman this offseason. Instead, the team has spent its free agency resources bolstering depth. Isaiahh Loudermilk re-signed while the organization brought in Daniel Ekuale and Esezi Otomewo from the outside. While the focus moves to the NFL Draft and who the team could consider selecting at the top of it, there’s one current Steeler forgotten. Dean Lowry.
It’d be hard to blame anyone for it. Signed to a two-year deal last offseason, Lowry spent the summer injured and the winter inactive. Brought in with the intent of serving as Ekuale or Loudermilk role, rotational base end depth, Lowry began training camp on the PUP list, still recovering from a pectoral tear that cut short his 2023 season.
