Take this for what it’s worth, but former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown says a deal will be done soon to bring safety Justin Simmons to Pittsburgh. Keep in mind that Brown did first have the news that the Texans were trading for wide receiver Stefon Diggs and also predicted the Steelers would sign Russell Wilson.
Simmons is 30 years old and a two-time Pro Bowl selection and a second-team All-Pro four times. He’s remained in the conversation of the top safeties in the AFC.

Simmons had a career-high 97 tackles in 2018 and a career-high six interceptions in 2022. The Steelers signed free agent DeShon Elliott this offseason but Simmons is certainly an upgrade. Simmons and Minkah Fitzpatrick would instantly form one of the most talented safety tandems in the NFL.
