The Steelers have issues at outside linebacker, mostly because they don't have many under contract.
Actually, they only have one — Jarvis Jones.
Jason Worilds is an unrestricted free agent and might be too expensive for the Steelers to keep.
James Harrison, albeit dominant at times in his return from a brief retirement, doesn't have a contract. He will be 37 at the start of the season and hasn't made a decision if he wants to come back if asked.
Rookies Jordan Zumwalt and Howard Jones are projects and didn't spend a day on the active roster. Zumwalt, a sixth-round pick, spent the season on injured reserve, and Jones was on the practice squad.
That leaves the Steelers with Arthur Moats, and that might not be a bad thing.
Moats is an unrestricted free agent as well but could be an offseason priority for the Steelers, especially considering their dire situation at the position.
“I hope to be back, but it is a business,” Moats said. “I feel I have to do what's best for me and my family. We will see what happens, but I definitely want to be back.”
