The Pittsburgh Steelers are returning almost every starter from their 2019 defense. Leading the NFL in both takeaways and sacks, the Steelers defense made great strides last season and is looking to improve even more in 2020. The only major loss from the defense was nose tackle Javon Hargrave who left to join the Philadelphia Eagles.
One of the many questions facing the Pittsburgh Steelers this offseason has been what the plan will be at nose tackle for 2020. The Steelers did make a trade with the Baltimore Ravens for defensive tackle Chris Wormley, but it is unclear if Wormley was meant to be a replacement at nose tackle or provide depth at the other positions on the defensive line.
