Steelers reportedly sign Melvin Ingram to one-year deal

The Pittsburgh Steelers' strong defense is adding yet another formidable player in 2021. Pass rusher Melvin Ingram reportedly signed a one-year deal with the club Monday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Ingram, 32, has put up some excellent seasons over his career. He made the Pro Bowl three straight seasons, from 2017-19. From 2015-19, Ingram racked up 43 sacks.

Ingram struggled to put up similar numbers last season. He played in just seven games due to a knee injury, and failed to record a sack. Had he stayed healthy, Ingram may have been looking at a multi-year contract.
