One of the biggest stories on defense for the Pittsburgh Steelers on defense has been the remaking of the secondary. By and large, only perennial All-Pro FS Minkah Fitzpatrick remains as a mainstay, the only member of the secondary who has been here for more than two seasons (and the only starter for more than one).
The turnover at cornerback has been especially acknowledged, with future Hall of Famer Patrick Peterson stepping in to replace Cameron Sutton, lost in free agency. He’s eagerly taken on a mentorship role with rookie 32nd-overall pick Joey Porter Jr., and the two have been virtually inseparable.
