Steve McLendon Would Make Another Sensible And Affordable Reunion To Replace Tyson Alualu

While Pittsburgh Steelers fans wait with baited breath over any news about a potential reunion with tight end Jesse James, who was recently released by the Detroit Lions two years into a three-year contract that he signed in 2019, returning him to the team that drafted him, there is another player formerly donning the black and gold with whom a reunion suddenly makes a lot more sense.

After losing out on Tyson Alualu, who returned to the Jacksonville Jaguars on a two-year, $6 million deal, the team is probably looking for options for defensive tackle. Both Isaiah Buggs and Carlos Davis played there a bit last season—even Henry Mondeaux did—but somebody with a little more experience might be nice.
