Steelers D/ST Remains High-End Option In Week 3

Steelers D/ST Remains High-End Option In Week 3

2 months ago

The Pittsburgh Steelers defense has been sensational through the first two weeks of the season and will hope to carry that momentum into a Week 3 clash against the Los Angeles Chargers. Los Angeles has not been especially prone to turnovers and has only allowed quarterback Justin Herbert (ankle) to be sacked twice thus far in 2024. That could limit the fantasy upside for Pittsburgh's defense in this contest, but its floor is extremely safe in what is projected to be the lowest-scoring game of the week. The Chargers are expected to lean on the run, which does not bode well against a Pittsburgh defense surrendering the third-fewest rushing yards in the NFL. Fantasy managers should continue to trust the Steelers DST as one of the top options on Sunday.
