Cornerback Kyler McMichael seeks niche in Pittsburgh Steelers' secondary

Posted Jul 7, 2025
The Pittsburgh Steelers brought former UNC defensive back Kyler McMichael back via a reserve/future deal in January. McMichael has the physical profile and tackling ability the Steelers covet, but his coverage abilities are unproven. McMichael’s best shot is to show his physicality can translate well to special teams and/or make him a valuable practice player. (TribLive.com)
