Ramsey Back, Steelers Defense Gains Momentum | Pittsburgh Steelers News

Jalen Ramsey’s return from the PUP list is a major defensive boost for the Steelers, clearing him for full practice and poised to anchor their secondary as the regular season looms. Though he’s been sidelined in pads like Joey Porter Jr., his absence gave Asante Samuel Jr. and Daylen Everett valuable reps, strengthening depth. Defensive coordinator Patrick Graham plans to deploy Ramsey at cornerback — and even hybrid linebacker — after his Pro Bowl safety stint last year. His presence also eases pressure if Porter Jr. holds out, as Samuel and Everett have stepped up impressively. With key players healthy and ready, the Steelers’ defense is primed for a strong start.
