Player: S Damontae Kazee
Stock Value: Down
Reasoning: After logging 772 snaps in 14 games last season, it’s unclear what Damontae Kazee’s role is in 2024. The Pittsburgh Steelers released Keanu Neal, but signed DeShon Elliott, a more obvious strong safety. The moves seem likely to relegated Kazee to a rotational or sub-package role in his third season in Pittsburgh.
The Steelers originally signed Damontae Kazee as safety depth in 2022 behind Minkah Fitzpatrick and Terrell Edmunds. He filled that role well, enough for the team to re-sign him on a better two-year contract.
