Ranking the top 10 Steelers players on the roster for 2022
7: Myles Jack could become a difference-maker at linebacker
Myles Jack was another big-name free agent that joined the Steelers after the Jaguars surprisingly cut him. It did not take Mike Tomlin long before he got on the phone to try and get this linebacker to come to Pittsburgh. That pitch worked quick, and this free agent would sign a two-year deal with the black and gold.
He comes to the team with his career in a state of limbo now. His career is not as highly thought of as it used to be during the impressive years with the special Jaguars defenses. Individually, this player has seen his stats go down, but he has a great chance to bounce back now.
Jack has all the tools to get where he used to be in his career. Two solid back-to-back seasons in Pittsburgh could lead to a giant pay raise in the future. He noticed that the supporting cast around him is one of the best in the league.
This linebacker is one of the most athletic in the game and could really make a statement for the Steelers. They have been searching for someone like him ever since Ryan Shazier had his career cut short with an injury. This is an overlooked addition to the team but could be a steal if he returns to form.
