Mike Tomlin opens up about decision to trade Minkah Fitzpatrick for Jalen Ramsey

The departure of a leader like Minkah Fitzpatrick was unexpected from the Steelers. However, on Sunday, Mike Tomlin broke his silence surrounding the trade to acquire Jalen Ramsey.

According to an article by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's Brian Batko, Tomlin had high praise for the cornerback and opened up about their plans to use him in different positions.

"He's long, he's fast, he's combative," Tomlin said. "His above-the-neck game and feel for the passing game is excellent. He's physical. People often forget that this guy was probably the best safety prospect in the draft, as well, when he came out, and that just speaks to his talent level and how immense it its."

The Steelers made splashes to acquire other veterans like DK Metcalf and Aaron Rodgers. Only time will tell if these additions help Tomlin break the playoff curse and compete for the Super Bowl championship.
