The Pittsburgh Steelers experienced some major attrition as Mike Tomlin would like to say at the safety position on Saturday against the Indianapolis Colts with S Minkah Fitzpatrick and Trenton Thompson both getting hurt in the game as well as S Damontae Kazee getting ejected for a big hit on WR Michael Pittman Jr. where Kazee hit Pittman’s head with his shoulder pad as he laid out to catch a pass from QB Gardner Minshew.

Tom Brady took to social media to defend Kazee and the hit, stating that quarterbacks must do a better job of keeping their pass catchers out of harm’s way with poorly thrown passes.
