Steelers Not Concerned With Minkah Fitzpatrick's Contract
2 years agoPittsburgh Steelers defensive coordinator Teryl Austin said he's not concerned about All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick sitting out the team's mandatory minicamp this week. "I have zero concerns about Minkah Fitzpatrick, he's a unicorn. He is always in great shape. He loves football," Austin said on 93.7 The Fan. "He's got all the stuff he wants. So I have zero worries about it and that stuff will take care of itself." Fitzpatrick is sitting out as he looks for a new deal heading into the final season of his current contract. The 25-year-old has been a staple for the Steelers secondary since joining them in 2019, and he had a career-high 124 tackles (84 solo), two interceptions seven passes defensed, one forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 16 games in 2021.
