I don’t think anyone will dispute that Garrett is elite.

The Steelers won 8 games and almost made the playoffs with the worst QB play in the NFL.

The Steelers have a WR on the roster who runs a 4.3, finished top 4 in every agility drill, and has an athleticism grade of 87.

I still can’t believe Brian Flores is in Pittsburgh. This is the best hire they’ve made since Mike Tomlin himself back in ‘07.

Kenny should have stayed and competed.
