Minkah Fitzpatrick is no longer a Pittsburgh Steeler, which means the team will have to find a way to replace him at safety. Currently, their starting duo would consist of Juan Thornhill and DeShon Elliott. According to Thornhill, that’s a pairing that can do quite well in 2025.
“I’ve been around him [Elliott] a lot, talking to him,” Thornhill said, speaking to the media at training camp on Wednesday, via WTAE-TV. “He’s a physical guy. I feel like I’m a physical guy. We both can cover well, so I think we’ll do well together… DeShon, he’s a great player.
