Pittsburgh Steelers beat writer Ray Fittipaldo expects the team to deploy three-safety packages frequently during the 2026 season.
Fittipaldo made the comments Wednesday on 93.7 The Fan. He noted the versatility of safeties Jalen Ramsey, DeShon Elliott and Jaquan Brisker as a key factor. Ramsey is expected to move between slot, safety and rover roles, while Brisker brings blitzing ability from the edge. Elliott returns after missing the end of last season with a knee injury sustained against Green Bay.
