Gotta love Minkah. As a Steelers fan it was so obvious how big his impact is. Our defense didn’t take that next step until we acquired Minkah.

im homies wit his bro

[@akshayv9363]

Am I the only one who thinks that he looks like Jamal Murray

[@iitsizzy4907]

No he doesn’t

[@deanmcwilliams5076]

Nah he look like Patrick mahomes no cap a little

[@REALTRUEJOURNEY]

Y'all need glasses lol

[@drlow_]

Yes the Steelers have done a great job working with Minkah. Making him a great all pro safety.

[@paulgaither]

He was a star with Miami. They didn't make him anything. He wanted out of Miami. He was not some underrated cast-off.

[@joshuagrizzel4246]

Hopefully he will work is way too being the next polomalu

[@drlow_]

He will get there

[@mrpiccaso6517]

@@paulgaither he kinda was they had him playing corner when he’s a damn safety that’s a waste of talent I mean he was still a good corner but he’s a great safety so and it’s not like I’m a Miami fan so I wouldn’t know why they did that but idk they had him marked as a safety but that’s not how they played him never mind said it in video playing in box almost as a linebacker from 1 to 3rd down and Theres not many 4th downs that get attempted to make

The dolphins saved his career, they couldve traded him to the browns or raiders. Minkahs a joke lol.

[@conlethgorham706]

@@robertgarza9675 I dont think a pro bowl safety is a joke

[@juanurbina3697]

As a Dolphins fan, I was really exited when we drafted him. He showed a lot of flashes during his rookie year. Unfortunately, it didn't work out for him in Miami but the trade has benefited both franchises. I wish Minkah all the best.

[@xGatorchomp28x]

As a fellow dolphins fan, thankfully our secondary is still pretty darn good! I'm glad he's doing well in Pittsburgh! 😊😊

[@2ssrs950]

I'm so glad we got him in Pittsburgh. He will always be loved and have a home in the burgh

[@dwightk.schrute5559]

I really felt this guy was better then Derwin coming out of the draft. Just seems like the most complete player

[@iPanhandle]

I loved this pick for Miami but he fits better in Pittsburgh. Just gotta love watching him play man

[@bbq_steak5632]

I mean. I wasn’t sold at first cause of his rookie year. And then I realized “oh yeah. He was on the Dolphins” but then. I looked into it farther. He had 80 tackles his rookie year. He had 69 when he made the pro bowl last year with us so.... what tf are they smoking there when they voting on pro bowlers? 80 tackles ain’t a pushover number by any means. Now granted he only had 2 picks but one was a pick 6

[@iPanhandle]

@@bbq_steak5632 well he also got traded a coup games into the season, which may have caused him to miss a game or two. But I think he should’ve definitely went to the pro bowl his rookie year.

[@nightryder16]

Yea didn't like playing in the box all the time! A guy like him, you just put him in center field and let him be a true free! He's sealed our back end up that's for sure. And is a great open field tackler!

[@LouRyanYT]

Minkah can't tackle/play man coverage all that well but he's definitely a top 3 zone coverage guy in the league

[@waxman68cards19]

Tomlin knows talent, knows how to get them mentored and the only coach to have all his seasons in Pittsburgh with wins of 8 or more. Definitely Tomlin underrated while Fitzpatrick was a missing piece to the defense that has stepped in and stepped up! Thank you Miami!

[@johnadams5489]

Its good for us Steelers Fans to know more about players that found a home with the Steelers. His family had a very difficult time.. Not much you can do when a flood destroys your home. I was also very sad to hear that because his parents were not of the same Race, they were discriminated against. Racism is something that we should read about in History books, but Racism has no place in today's world. As a Steelers fan, I am happy that Minkah is on OUR team.

Minkah is an all-pro an possibly a HOF safety

[@soulessshadow5356]

I honestly don't think I can imagine a better defensive minded coach for Minkah to be with.
