Player: DL Derrick Harmon
Stock Value: Up
Reasoning: After missing three games, rookie DL Derrick Harmon returned to the lineup and made his impact felt, beyond the statistics. While he finished the game with two tackles, Harmon helped control the Lions’ potent run defense. It was an emotional moment, too, for him to return to his hometown of Detroit. He had hoped one day his mother, who passed away the night the Steelers drafted him, would watch him play there.
While the Steelers’ run defense as arguably heading in the right direction, Derrick Harmon helped take it to another level.
