Like T.J. Watt in 2022, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Minkah Fitzpatrick probably didn’t “earn” his Pro Bowl last year. Not only did he miss seven games, but he played a fairly pedestrian game by his standards. I should note that some things were out of his control, including how the team used him. The lowlight of his stat line was his zero interceptions, having shared the league lead just a year prior. Either way, 2023 was clearly his worst season in Pittsburgh by a good margin, particularly through time lost due to injury. And head coach Mike Tomlin knows that just based on how the defense functioned without him.
