Could We See A Loudermilk/Leal Rotation In 2022?

The Pittsburgh Steelers struggled mightily upfront last season on both sides of the line of scrimmage. When holding the defensive line under the microscope, plenty had to do with the unfortunate ankle injury that knocked DT Tyson Alualu out for the entire season in only Week 2 and the ongoing knee injury DE Stephon Tuitt dealt with all season as well as the tragic death of his brother that summer. Since then, Alualu has committed fully in 2022 adding another quality starter back into the fold along the defensive line.

While the jury is still out as to whether Tuitt will return in 2022, Pittsburgh now has a DL room including All-Pro Cam Heyward, Alualu, Chris Wormley, Montravius Adams, Isaiahh Loudermilk, rookie third round pick DeMarvin Leal, Carlos Davis, Khalil Davis, and Henry Mondeaux.
