Palazzolo: Kaleb Johnson’s Style ‘Reminded Me Of Joe Mixon’

Going into the 2025 NFL Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers had several weaknesses that they needed to address. Through the first three rounds, they’ve done a job at doing that. In Round 1, they took Oregon defensive lineman Derrick Harmon. In the third round, they selected running back Kaleb Johnson. While they desperately need a quarterback, those two players make their team better. Steve Palazzolo of The 33rd Team had high praise for Johnson as well.

“His style reminded me of Joe Mixon,” Palazzolo said during his podcast Check the Mic’s livestream of Day 2 of the draft.
