Steelers Reportedly Sign Kwon Alexander

The Pittsburgh Steelers are signing inside linebacker Kwon Alexander, pending a physical, sources told ESPN on Saturday. Alexander, who turns 29 next week, visited the Steelers in May, but he remained a free agent as teams reported to training camp this week. He spent the 2022 season with the New York Jets, starting 12 games. He had 69 tackles, six tackles for loss, one forced fumble and a half sack. A fourth-round pick by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2015, Alexander has 11 career forced fumbles, eight interceptions and 12.5 sacks and one interception. The former Pro Bowl participant suffered serious injuries in recent seasons including a torn pectoral in 2019 and a torn Achilles a year prior.
