Don’t look now, but UDFA rookie S Sebastian Clark may well be turning the battle for the last spot in the secondary a competition. The former Hawkeye had a big day in the last practice before the break, recording an interception and goal-line stop. After trading Minkah Fitzpatrick, the Steelers suddenly looked thin at safety, but Castro could help.
Undrafted out of Iowa earlier this year, Sebastian Castro spent five years with the Hawkeyes. Nominally a safety, he played a “Cash” role in their defense, a hybrid position incorporating many responsibilities. In any given game, he could line up at deep safety, the slot, or up in the box.
