The Pittsburgh Steelers love their football bloodlines. And they could go back to that well in the 2024 NFL Draft. According to our Jonathan Heitritter, on-hand at this year’s 2024 NFL Combine, the Steelers held a formal interview with Clemson LB Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
He’s the son of former NFL linebacker Jeremiah Trotter.
Trotter is considered one of the top off-ball linebackers in this year’s draft, though his stock is slightly cooler than anticipated compared to one year ago. Over his last two years with the Tigers, Trotter racked up 177 tackles (28.5 of them for a loss), with 12 sacks, four interceptions, and three forced fumbles, strong production across the board.
