Late in the offseason, the Pittsburgh Steelers made a splash trade with the Miami Dolphins. Gone was Minkah Fitzpatrick, who had been a stalwart on their defense. However, they acquired another decorated defensive back in Jalen Ramsey in return. Ramsey has been in the league since 2016, being one of the best players at his position for most of that time. While there were concerns that he could be on the decline, Cam Heyward singled Ramsey out as a big reason why the Steelers defeated the New York Jets, 34-32, in Week 1.
“A guy who really brought energy all freaking day was Jalen Ramsey,” Heyward said Sunday via the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s YouTube channel.
