More often than not, the quarterback is the most valuable player on a football team. That’s never been more true than in this era of football in the NFL.
The Steelers have found that out the hard way in recent years, having some issues under center following the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger, which has ultimately held the team back. They seem to have the position figured out though, at least on paper, with Russell Wilson and Justin Fields at quarterback entering the 2024 season.
That doesn’t mean other players and positions aren’t important though.
EDGE defender is right up there with quarterback, and fortunately for the Steelers they have a superstar and future Hall of Famer to work with in T.
