Heitritter: Despite Active Start To Free Agency, Steelers Need To Add A ‘Big Meanie’ To Middle Of The Defense

GM Omar Khan has been a busy man since the tampering period opened Monday to kick off the NFL’s free agent frenzy.

Shortly after losing CB Cam Sutton to the Detroit Lions, Pittsburgh signed eight-time Pro Bowl CB Patrick Peterson to fill the starting spot vacated on the defense. The Steelers then had a busy Tuesday, re-signing S Damontae Kazee and DL Larry Ogunjobi to fill needs at safety and defensive line with starting-caliber players while going outside the organization to sign IOL Nate Herbig who figures to compete with Kevin Dotson for the LG spot in 2023.
