By the end of last season, no one’s body was as beat up as Minkah Fitzpatrick’s. That’s what happens after you record 124 total tackles, the most ever by a Steelers’ safety. Fitzpatrick wasn’t just the last line of defense in the passing game, keeping everything in front of him, he was too often the last obstacle in the run game, making tackle after tackle far downfield..
If the Pittsburgh Steelers want to improve their odds of making to the playoffs and actually winning a game, Fitzpatrick knows that story has to be rewritten. He said as much after reporting to camp on Tuesday.
