The forgotten safety in the 2015 Steelers secondary: Isaiah Lewis

Everyone knows the debate about Shamarko Thomas and Mike Mitchell. Rookie Gerod Holliman is another player who gets discussed often, but one name people are forgetting is Isaiah Lewis.

When Pittsburgh Steelers fans think of the safety position which was vacated by Troy Polamalu upon his retirement a few months ago, the conversation typically gets directed towards names like Mike Mitchell, Shamarko Thomas and even rookie Gerod Holliman. One name which rarely, if ever, gets discussed is Isaiah Lewis.

Lewis, maybe more known for his nickname 'Natural Born Killer', played his college football at Michigan State, and after going undrafted was picked up by the Cincinnati Bengals only to be released after not making the team's 53-man roster.
