PFM Impact on Pittsburgh Steelers

Derrick HarmonMeaningful impact

Pittsburgh loses one of its interior defensive linemen for multiple games, thinning the rotation before a Week 5 matchup with Indianapolis and Jonathan Taylor. More early-down and run-defense work now has to be absorbed by the remaining defensive tackles.

Roster StrengthDefense Rating
Jamel DeanMeaningful impact

Dean's absence leaves Pittsburgh without an established outside starter immediately after Joey Porter Jr. was traded to Dallas. The Steelers now have to lean more heavily on Asante Samuel Jr. and rookie Daylen Everette on the perimeter while Jalen Ramsey is playing through a broken wrist.

Roster StrengthDefense Rating
Jalen RamseyMeaningful impact

Ramsey being active keeps Pittsburgh's veteran outside coverage option on the field immediately after the Joey Porter Jr. trade, reducing the burden on the remaining cornerback rotation.
