Pittsburgh Steelers’ general manager, Omar Khan, recently acknowledged the imperative need to assess their inside linebacker position following multiple season-ending injuries last year.
While Elandon Roberts and Cole Holcomb remain under contract, and Mark Robinson is set to enter his third season, the team is likely keen on acquiring at least one more player with starter-level capability in the upcoming offseason. Among the various free agents in the market, Pro Football Focus has identified four individuals as ideal fits, one of whom is a Super Bowl champion.
Leading the quartet is former Kansas City Chief, Drue Tranquill, who started eight games for the defending champions in the previous season. The 28-year-old linebacker spent four seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers before signing a one-year deal with Kansas City, and he is now seeking his third NFL team.
The remaining three names on the list include Josey Jewell from the Denver Broncos, Blake Cashman from the Houston Texans, and Tyrel Dodson from the Buffalo Bills. Each of these players is considered by Pro Football Focus as potential fits for the Steelers’ inside linebacker position.
