How Alex Highsmith Compares To Other Former Steelers Pass Rushers Heading Into Third Season

Much has been made about OLB Alex Highsmith this offseason as he heads into Year Three with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He has been often named the player to watch out for by many media outlets and analysts alike thanks to his improvement shown from his rookie campaign to his second season in the league. While Highsmith did well in his first season as the full-time starter opposite DPOY T.J. Watt, there is still plenty of meat left on the bone for Highsmith to make yet another leap forward in his play in 2022, as evidenced by his personal desire to hit double digit sacks this season and to become a feared running mate opposite Watt.
