Steelers Rumors: Peterson, Sutton, OL

March 30th, 2023 at 9:01pm CST by Sam Robinson

Still opting to conserve costs at cornerback, the Steelers let Cameron Sutton walk in free agency and replaced him with Patrick Peterson. While the latter’s resume laps Sutton’s, the new Pittsburgh cover man is going into his age-33 season. Peterson bounced back in Minnesota, intercepting five passes last season, and Mike Tomlin plans to take advantage of the All-Decade corner’s experience. Tomlin said he will not shy away from using Peterson around the formation, including at safety, this season. The 17th-year Steelers HC has discussed this with Peterson, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette tweets.

This would be a transition to monitor, and increased safety usage would be a way for Peterson to play well into his mid-30s. Rod Woodson, Charles Woodson and Ronde Barber transitioned to safety as their careers advanced; each Hall of Famer finished his career at the position. Peterson will have a Hall of Fame case when he retires; his Steelers tenure will help determine if he can ascend to first-ballot status. The Steelers have Minkah Fitzpatrick rostered at safety and have Damontae Kazee and Keanu Neal at the position, with the latter agreeing to terms Thursday, whereas their corner group invites more questions. Citing Peterson’s intelligence, Tomlin is still planning to move the 13th-year defender off his usual boundary corner post at times.

Here is the latest out of Pittsburgh:

  • Sutton signed a three-year, $33MM deal with the Lions. While the Steelers expressed interest in keeping him on a third contract, Dulac notes their offer was not in this ballpark. Pittsburgh had kept Sutton on a two-year, $9MM deal in 2021; he outplayed that contract and will now be asked to be Detroit’s No. 1 corner. The Steelers gave Peterson a two-year, $14MM pact with just $5.9MM guaranteed; they still roster Levi Wallace and Ahkello Witherspoon, who are each on $4MM-per-year deals.
  • On the subject of rejected Steelers offers, the team is believed to have extended a proposal to Eric Kendricks. Pittsburgh has been connected to making a strong offer to Kendricks, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com writes. A UCLA alum, Kendricks will return to Los Angeles on a two-year, $13.25MM Chargers contract. The Steelers have still overhauled their linebacker group, cutting Myles Jack and letting Devin Bush leave for a Seahawks deal. Cole Holcomb (three years, $18MM) and Elandon Roberts (two years, $7MM) are now in the fold.
  • Shifting to the O-line, Tomlin offered support for scrutinized tackles Dan Moore and Chukwuma Okorafor by indicating he was “comfortable” with the starting duo, per Kaboly. Pro Football Focus rated both between No. 55 and No. 60 at tackle last season. The Steelers have added both Isaac Seumalo, whom Tomlin has not determined which guard spot he will play, and Nate Herbig this offseason but largely left the tackle spots alone. The Steelers, whom Kaboly notes were briefly tied to Orlando Brown Jr. during a free agency stretch that ended with Brown a Bengal, will be connected to tackles early in the draft. Though, the cornerback need may take precedence. Mel Kiper Jr.’s latest mock sends a corner (Maryland’s Deonte Banks) to Pittsburgh.
  • The team also added swingman Le’Raven Clark recently. A former Colts third-rounder who spent last season with the Titans, Clark signed a one-year, $1.2MM deal, KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson tweets. The experienced O-lineman’s $50K signing bonus represents the only guarantees in this deal, which will qualify the eighth-year veteran as a competitor for a depth role.
  • The Steelers made a coaching tweak recently, promoting assistant outside linebackers coach Denzel Martin to OLBs coach, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com tweets. The former scout has been with the team eight years. Pittsburgh also hired Jason Brooks as a defensive quality control assistant; Brooks previously was on Baltimore’s staff.

Titans Add LB Joe Schobert, Sign OL Le’Raven Clark Off Eagles’ Practice Squad

September 27th, 2022 at 5:55pm CST by Sam Robinson

Joe Schobert will receive another chance. More than a month after a brief Broncos tenure, the Titans signed the former Pro Bowl linebacker to their practice squad. Tennessee also added Le’Raven Clark off Philadelphia’s P-squad. This will give the former Colts third-rounder another shot to stick on an active roster.

Schobert, who went off the 2016 draft board a round after Clark, is joining a fourth NFL team. The addition comes after the Titans saw starter Zach Cunningham, who was on the team’s injury report with a knee injury going into Week 3, leave Sunday’s contest with an elbow malady.

An ex-Browns regular who bounced to the Jaguars and Steelers during the 2020s, Schobert worked out for the Giants and Seahawks last week. But it will be the Titans who provide an opportunity. Although Schobert spent the first part of the season unsigned, he has been a starter throughout his career. After the Jaguars traded him to the Steelers in September 2021, he started 15 games for his new team. The Steelers, however, released Schobert in March.

Schobert, 28, logged workouts with the Broncos and Saints this summer, but after signing with the former, was back on the street eight days later. Still, the six-year veteran has been productive when on the field. Schobert led the NFL with 144 tackles in 2017, his Pro Bowl slate, and posted 141 stops for the Jaguars in his first season. The Jags gave Schobert a five-year, $53.75MM deal during their Dave Caldwell–Doug Marrone regime’s final offseason. Midway through their short Urban Meyer period, the Jags sent Schobert to Pittsburgh.

The Clark addition comes days after the Titans placed Taylor Lewan on IR. The Pro Bowl left tackle is expected to miss the rest of the season. Tennessee used late-summer trade acquisition Dennis Daley as its left tackle against Las Vegas. Clark has played both tackle and guard as a pro, making 16 starts in six seasons.

Eagles Extend OL Le’Raven Clark

December 8th, 2021 at 9:51pm CST by Ben Levine

The Eagles extended backup lineman Le’Raven Clark today. Per the team, the offensive lineman inked a new deal that will keep him in Philadelphia through at least the 2022 season.

After spending the first four seasons of his career with the Colts, the former third-round pick joined the Eagles this offseason. He didn’t make the team at the end of the preseason, but he re-joined the organization via the practice squad days later. After appearing in 47 games (15 starts) through his first four years in the NFL, Clark has only seen time in two games this season, with all six of his snaps coming on special teams.

The Eagles weren’t done making moves today. According to Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer on Twitter, Philly waived cornerback Mac McCain. The undrafted rookie out of North Carolina A&T has traveled plenty during his first season in the NFL. He spent the preseason with the Broncos, he later caught on with the Eagles, he was claimed again by Denver, and then he was claimed a second time by Philly. The 23-year-old has seen time in one game this season, collecting 13 special teams snaps for the Eagles in Week 3.
