While a couple of members—or former members—of the Pittsburgh Steelers celebrated yesterday their inclusion in the league’s 2010s All-Decade team, one current Steeler who spent the majority of the past decade elsewhere couldn’t help but take notice of his own absence, and put forth the argument that he should be there.
10-year veteran Joe Haden was a top-10 pick in the 2010 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns. He spent his first seven seasons there before he was released in August of 2017. The Steelers signed him that same day, and he has been their top cornerback since, coming off a Pro Bowl year with five interceptions.
