Minkah Fitzpatrick Named NFL’s 79th-Best Player

The Pittsburgh Steelers have a second player added to the 2024 NFL Top 100 list. Free safety Minkah Fitzpatrick joins DL Cam Heyward, coming in at No. 79 on this year’s edition. Heyward slotted in at No. 98.

It’s a fall for Fitzpatrick, who finished 2023 with his highest-ever ranking at No. 18. But Fitzpatrick’s 2023 campaign was defined by injuries instead of playmaking, missing half the year with hamstring and knee ailments and finishing without an interception for the first time since high school.

Still, his ability to impact the game at any point stuck in the mind of players/voters, keeping him on the list.
