Quick Facts

  • Team: PIT (Pittsburgh Steelers)

2026 Outlook

Sawyer provides valuable depth in Pittsburgh's edge-rushing rotation after contributing 34 tackles and 1 sack in his 2025 rookie season. He appeared in all 16 games and showed he can be trusted when injuries hit the edge room. His path to regular snaps remains crowded with T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith, and Nick Herbig all commanding significant roles, but his physical style and special teams contributions give him value. Sawyer's size and dependability make him insurance against future roster changes at the position. (per Steelers 2026 Training Camp Preview: Outside Linebackers - Yardbarker)

Role / Depth Chart

Backup/special teams edge rusher. Depth piece behind Watt, Highsmith, and Herbig. Could see expanded role if injuries occur to the top three.
