The Pittsburgh Steelers have long prided themselves on building through the draft, but their current roster tells a different story—especially on offense. Just a handful of homegrown players have earned second contracts with the team. The defense boasts a few, including T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith, Cameron Heyward, and even Isaiahh Loudermilk, who recently re-signed on a one-year deal. But on offense? Pat Freiermuth is the only one. That needs to change, and I think Calvin Austin III is the perfect candidate.
It may not seem like a high-priority signing right now, but I would argue his career trajectory is still promising and that his impact goes beyond the box score.
