Old and slow, Warren Sapp called the Steelers defense. And that was back at the start of the 2011 season.

At 36, both are playing well since their return. Harrison's four sacks in the past two games give him the team lead despite not re-signing until Sept. 23. Keisel leads all defensive linemen with 11 pressures, a 16-yard interception return and four pass breakups, and he did not re-sign until after training camp.

The list of 36-year-olds on the roster the past three decades is small and dominated by punters, kickers and long-snappers.
