Back to EpisodesSteelers' Cornerback Strategy: Free Agency & Draft
Description
The Pittsburgh Steelers bolstered their secondary in free agency, signing veteran cornerback Jamel Dean and retaining Asante Samuel Jr. Despite injury concerns and a non-guaranteed contract, Dean forms a formidable press-man duo with Joey Porter Jr. However, the teams cornerback situation remains a hidden need, with Samuel and Cory Trice Jr. both having injury histories and contracts expiring after 2026. The Steelers are expected to draft a cornerback early in the 2026 draft, with South Carolinas Brandon Cisse and San Diego States Chris Johnson among potential targets.
