2025 Fantasy Outlook
After being limited to just 10 appearances in 2023, Fitzpatrick appeared in all 17 regular-season games last year and tallied 96 tackles (62 solo), an interception, four pass defenses and a forced fumble. Even though DeShon Elliott had a career-best season during his first year with the Steelers in 2024, Fitzpatrick's output proved that the pair can be productive while starting alongside each other at safety, as both players ranked among the top 15 safeties in the league in tackles. Fitzpatrick will remain locked into a prominent role during his seventh season with the Steelers. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $73.6 million contract with the Steelers in June of 2022.
Unremarkable day in loss
Fitzpatrick recorded four tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 31-6 loss at Cleveland.
ANALYSIS
On a day where Cleveland only ran 53 plays on offense, Fitzpatrick logged a season-low 48 defensive snaps in Week 7. That led to a relatively low tackle total Sunday, but he's still on pace for 100-plus stops on the year going into a Week 8 matchup at Atlanta.

Fitzpatrick was dominant for the Steelers in 2021 and 2022, totaling 220 tackles (140 solo), eight interceptions, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, a touchdown and 18 pass defenses over those two seasons. However, he was limited to just 10 games in 2023 due to knee and hand injuries and tallied just 64 tackles (43 solo) and three pass defenses. The Steelers brought in DeShon Elliott during the offseason, but his presence shouldn't hinder Fitzpatrick's role as long as he can stay healthy in 2024, as he signed a four-year, $73.6 million contract with Pittsburgh ahead of the 2022 campaign.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
To play deep more in 2024
Fitzpatrick will likely get more opportunities in a traditional deep safety role in 2024, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports. "Minkah is at his best when he's playing back a little bit deeper, seeing things and able to react," Steelers defensive coordinator Teryl Austin said. "He sees it really fast. And so my job is to try to keep him back there as much as possible."
ANALYSIS
The versatile Fitzpatrick played a career-high 12.2 snaps per game in the box and eight per game in the slot last season, but he failed to force a turnover. The Steelers are hoping to get the star safety back to playing "Minkah Ball," and that entails more opportunities to anticipate and pick off throws as the last line of defense, which is what Fitzpatrick did en route to six interceptions in 2022.
