Steelers Face Changes After Early Playoff Exit

The Arizona Cardinals have signed former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Quez Watkins, who previously struggled with route running and drops while with the Eagles and Steelers. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Chargers have signed Dez Fitzpatrick to a reserve/futures contract after his stint with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers themselves have signed cornerback Kyler McMichael, who has bounced around several teams since being undrafted in 2022. Pittsburgh head coach Mike Tomlin is facing speculation about his future with the team after another early playoff exit, with former player Ryan Clark suggesting Tomlin might find more success elsewhere. Despite this, T.J. Watt has expressed his commitment to the Steelers, emphasizing his desire to win a Super Bowl with the team. These developments underscore a period of change and reflection for the Steelers as they prepare for the next season.
