Fitzpatrick Deeply Appreciates Support From Steelers Fans Following Prisco Snubbing

When CBS Sports NFL analyst Pete Prisco recently snubbed Pittsburgh Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick from his top 100 players for 2020, it did not go unnoticed and especially by fans on social media. Even one of Prisco’s co-workers, former Steelers cornerback Bryant McFadden, took issue with Prisco leaving Fitzpatrick off his top 100 list. Steelers defensive captain Cameron Heyward also clapped back at Prisco on social media and surprisingly, so too did Fitzpatrick.

On Saturday, Heyward and Fitzpatrick joined McFadden on CBS Sports HG for an interview to discuss the snubbing of the Steelers safety by Prisco and at the end of it, the 2019 First-Team All-Pro and former first-round draft pick of the Miami Dolphins was asked what it means to him to have had so many fans of the team come to his defense of Prisco.
