Outside of S Minkah Fitzpatrick and CB Joey Porter Jr., the Pittsburgh Steelers lack for long-term stability in the secondary. There is Patrick Peterson, who had a solid second half of the season in 2023. He will be 34 next season, and it is not clear where he would play. That is assuming he is retained, which is not guaranteed.
Addressing every level of the secondary is a primary priority this offseason, as ESPN argues, even if it comes second. First on the list is untangling the quarterback position, whether it’s Kenny Pickett, Mason Rudolph, or a third party.
