The Pittsburgh Steelers are known for their stingy defense, and this offseason, they’re looking to take it to the next level. According to sources close to the team, the Steelers are planning to create an unstoppable defensive trio featuring T.J. Watt, Diontae Johnson, and a surprise new addition.
The Steelers have already begun making moves to bolster their defense, re-signing key players and making savvy free agency pickups. But the pièce de résistance is reportedly the addition of highly-touted free agent defensive tackle, Calais Campbell.
Campbell, a six-time Pro Bowl selection, would bring a level of experience and expertise to the Steelers’ defensive line that would be unmatched in the AFC North. Paired with Watt’s pass-rushing prowess and Johnson’s shutdown corner skills, the Steelers would boast a defensive trio capable of dominating even the most potent offenses.
“T.J., Diontae, and Calais would be an unstoppable force,” said an NFL insider. “They would be able to pressure the quarterback, shut down the run, and lock down opposing receivers. It’s a defensive coordinator’s dream come true.”
While the Steelers have yet to confirm the signing of Campbell, sources indicate that a deal is imminent. If it happens, Steelers fans should be ecstatic – their team would be well on its way to building a defense for the ages.
