2020 Defense Projections
2020 Fantasy Outlook
One of the few positives in an otherwise disappointing 2019 season for the Steelers was the trade for Fitzpatrick, who played like a human highlight reel after two games with the Dolphins. Whether he is playing cornerback or safety, Fitzpatrick has a nose for the ball, logging two forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, five interceptions and two touchdowns last season. Although he may not match his Pro Bowl performance, Fitzpatrick is a solid IDP option who is under contract until 2023. Read Past Outlooks
To be green dot for defense
Fitzpatrick and Vince Williams will serve as the key communicators for the Steelers defense now that Devin Bush (knee-ACL) is set to undergo season-ending surgery, Mike Prisuta of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Having played 100 percent of Pittsburgh's defensive snaps this season, Fitzpatrick was a seeming fit to shoulder the responsibility of relaying play calls to the defense. Fitzpatrick wasn't quite as impactful over the first quarter of the regular season this year compared to his All-Pro campaign of 2019, but he did come up with a game-breaking contribution during a Week 6 win over Cleveland, registering a 33-yard pick-six off of Baker Mayfield.

Sam Darnold and the Jets haven't been historically bad so far, but it's too late to turn the season around, so they might as well have fun with it.
With Ben Roethlisberger back, the Steelers will look to make the playoffs in 2020 after falling short of that goal the last two seasons.
Ben Roethlisberger is back to reclaim the starting QB job in Pittsburgh. Time may be ticking on Big Ben, however, as he seeks a third Super Bowl ring.
Kevin Payne notes that it's gotten to the point where Baltimore QB Lamar Jackson should be in at least one GPP lineup every week regardless of the opponent.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2018
Keep an eye on the status of Reshad Jones and perhaps downgrade Fitzpatrick to more of the DB30 range if Jones is still on the roster, but either way Fitzpatrick should provide DB2 utility following a strong rookie season as a CB/S crossover. If Jones is off the team, affording Fitzpatrick more safety looks, then the second-year pro could push for the top 10 among DBs. Fitzpatrick's production should improve by surpassing 1,000 snaps after playing 946 as a rookie, and his shutdown coverage portends playmaking upside, especially if the Miami offense improves.
