The Pittsburgh Steelers will need some help in the slot while Jalen Ramsey’s hamstring heals. Fortunately, they already have an option under contract on the practice squad. Don’t forget about Beanie Bishop Jr., who played 548 defensive snaps in the slot last year. He will likely soon make his 2025 debut.
Ramsey wears many hats for the team, but with Joey Porter Jr. projected to return after the bye, he was going to be playing a lot more slot and safety than he had been while Porter was out. They can partially replace his safety snaps with a player like Jabrill Peppers, but they have limited options in the slot outside of Brandin Echols.
