Pittsburgh Steelers are gearing up for the upcoming NFL season by making strategic moves to strengthen their roster. One significant addition is the signing of former Pro Bowl linebacker, Kwon Alexander, to a one-year contract. Alexander, 28, was originally drafted in the fourth round of the 2015 NFL Draft and spent his first four seasons showcasing his talent in Tampa Bay. In 2017, his remarkable performance earned him a spot in the prestigious Pro Bowl, boasting a league-high 108 solo tackles. Later, he joined the San Francisco 49ers and played a key role in helping the team reach the Super Bowl in 2019. However, a trade midway through the 2021 season sent him to the New Orleans Saints, followed by a stint with the New York Jets in 2022. While Alexander has proved himself as a solid player, injuries have hindered his progress. Various setbacks, including knee and chest injuries, limited his appearances during the 2018-19 season, and a torn Achilles ended his 2021 campaign prematurely. Alexander's signing marks the second player from the 2022 Jets roster to join the Steelers during this offseason, with the team also having acquired former New York guard Nate Herbig in free agency and his brother, outside linebacker Nick Herbig, in the draft. With a wealth of experience under his belt, having played in 95 games, starting 86 of them, and amassing impressive stats such as 12.5 sacks, eight interceptions, 11 forced fumbles, and five fumble recoveries, Alexander's presence on the Steelers' defense is expected to bring valuable depth and skill. To make room for Alexander on the roster, the Steelers had to part ways with offensive tackle Jarrid Williams.
