The Pittsburgh Steelers signed their first player of the 2021 offseason from outside of their organization today. It comes on a one-year contract to Miles Killebrew, a converted safety that now finds himself playing linebacker.

Killebrew is known for his work on special teams, though. Several fans mentioned that he was a 'dog' on special teams, and a tackling machine. He recorded 30 tackles on special teams from '16 to '19.
Arguably the best special teamer the Lions have had over the past 5 years. Also a fantastic leader on the team. Was the Lions' NFLPA rep in 2020.

May not provide on defense, but he's a good guy to have in the locker room.
Killebrew was a fourth round draft choice by the Detroit Lions in the 2016 NFL Draft.
