Fitzpatrick focused on growing his football I.Q. this offseason

How does one of the best safeties in the NFL become better?

Minkah Fitzpatrick has every desirable tool for an NFL safety. He has tremendous ball skills and is technically sound as any when it comes to tackling. But, his greatest strength on a consensus basis would be his eye for the ball and his ability to feel out what is going on around him at all times. He processes information quickly and is among the best in the league at doing it.

But, as he said during the Steelers' voluntary OTAs on the South Side, that is just the thing he tried to hone this offseason.
