Pittsburgh Steelers S Minkah Fitzpatrick has not produced an interception in the past 19 games. He has no forced fumbles or fumble recoveries during that time, either. That is not to say he isn’t doing plenty of other things very well, but what is zero takeaways worth at free safety?

For the Steelers, that’s another $33,100,000 over the next two years. That is what they owe Minkah Fitzpatrick for the 2025 and 2026 seasons, one of which is guaranteed. And Mike DeFabo of The Athletic can’t help but wonder if entertaining the possibility of moving him this offseason is worth considering, given the price tag.
