Continuing to learn about new additions to the Pittsburgh Steelers this offseason, I wanted to look at interior defensive lineman (IDL) Dean Lowry last season in run defense with the Minnesota Vikings. Today, let’s look at and provide some date context on Lowry, along with the 2023 Steelers (with at least 200 total regular season snaps) for comparative context.
Up first, run snaps and total snaps:
Right away, we get a very important quantity context for the group. The only IDL in our sights with above-average opportunities in 2023 was Larry Ogunjobi. He had 730 total snaps and 284 run snaps, ranking respectably at 13th and 19th out of the 123 qualifiers.
