It’s no secret that one of the biggest parts of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ franchise DNA is the defense. So many Steelers legends played on the defensive side of the ball, and a big part of being successful for Pittsburgh is having an elite defense.
While the majority of the focus of the 2023 offseason was on the evolution of the offense with a secondary focus on the cornerback position, the Steelers did not want to let the run defense fall by the wayside after a top-10 season in just about every defensive category in 2022.
So one of the players brought in was NT Breiden Fehoko.
