Interceptions – Minkah Fitzpatrick
Fitzpatrick saw his extremely young NFL career revitalized after being traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers from the Miami Dolphins. In 2019, as a member of both teams, he totaled 69 tackles, five interceptions, one returned for a touchdown and three fumble recoveries, one returned for a touchdown.
His new-found success in Pittsburgh has the rest of the league with their eyes locked on Fitzpatrick as he can completely transform the Steelers’ secondary.
“Pittsburgh also has an aggressive pass-rushing defense that’s ranked first or tied for the most sacks in each of the last three campaigns,” says Moton. “With that type of pressure up front, Fitzpatrick can pounce on ill-advised or hurried throws. We may see him make more strides in his first full year with the Steelers.”
Moton’s prediction: 7 interceptions
