Pittsburgh Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick has already established himself as being among the best at what he does. He’s got the recognition. Now he’s got the contract. He also has the stats to back them up—even if it’s always the tape that’s more important.

In a revelation that will shock nobody, the two-time first-team All-Pro has been among the most disruptive safeties in the league—when he’s given a chance.
