Needing to solve the “Baltimore problem” after they were rolled by the Ravens at the end of the 2024 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers selected defensive lineman Derrick Harmon in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft.

He, rookie fifth-round pick Yahya Black and free agent linebacker Malik Harrison were a big part of attempt to answer the run defense issues. But in the first matchup against the Ravens in Week 14, Harmon was out with an injury. Now, he’s set to make his first start in the Steelers-Ravens rivalry and could be a big part of the outcome as the Steelers need to find a way to slow down running back Derrick Henry Sunday night.
