The Pittsburgh Steelers turned heads when they traded wide receiver Diontae Johnson to the Carolina Panthers in what was practically a pick-and-player swap. The player they got in return was cornerback Donte Jackson, who has made an instant impact in his first season as a Steeler.
As it currently stands, Jackson is tied for second in the NFL in interceptions with five, two behind Detroit Lions safety Kerby Joseph and Green Bay Packers safety Xavier McKinney. Jackson has already set a new career-high in interceptions, topping his previous career-high of four which he set as a rookie in 2018.
