Signs massive extension
Fitzpatrick agreed Wednesday with the Steelers on a four-year, $73.6 million extension with the Steelers on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports
Analysis: Per Schefter, the $36 million in guaranteed money and $18.4 million annual average salary makes Fitzpatrick the highest-paid safety in NFL history. The 2018 first-round pick is coming off a career-high 124-tackle season and has recorded 11 interceptions, four fumble recoveries, three forced fumbles and three touchdowns across his first two-and-a-half seasons in Pittsburgh. The Alabama product projects to be one of the most prolific IDP options in fantasy once again during the 2022 campaign.

Tallies 12 stops
Fitzpatrick recorded 12 tackles and one pass defended in Sunday's 36-10 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Fitzpatrick was one of the few bright spots in an otherwise disastrous game for Pittsburgh by leading the team in tackles. He's occupied a key role in the defense throughout the season but has been particularly sharp of late by logging 50 tackles, four passes defended and two interceptions across his last five contests. With 114 stops for the season, Fitzpatrick has already surpassed the 100-tackle mark for the first time in his career and will have the chance to build on his production in…read more

Another interception against Ravens

Logs interception in Week 12
Fitzpatrick totaled eight tackles (five solo) and an interception in Sunday's 41-10 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Fitzpatrick missed last week's loss to the Chargers after testing positive for COVID-19, but he was on the field for 95 percent of the Steelers' defensive snaps in Week 12.

Activated from COVID list
Pittsburgh activated Fitzpatrick (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: As a result, Fitzpatrick, who missed the Steelers' loss to the Chargers in Week 11, will reclaim his starting free safety role Sunday against the Bengals. The looming return of Fitzpatrick -- and likely, cornerback Joe Haden (foot) and outside linebacker T.J. Watt (hip) -- should help the Pittsburgh defense deliver a better showing Week 12 after surrendering 41 points and 382 passing yards against the Chargers. Over nine games this season, Fitzpatrick has recorded 64 tackles and a forced fumble.

Should be back Week 12
Fitzpatrick (illness) is expected to return from the reserve/COVID-19 list prior to Sunday's game against the Bengals, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: Fitzpatrick was sidelined for the Steelers' Week 11 loss to the Chargers, but because he's vaccinated, he'll be eligible to rejoin the team as soon as he's asymptomatic of the virus and submits two negative tests at least 24 hours apart. Given that he first tested positive for the virus a week ago, Fitzpatrick could be cleared soon, assuming he experiences no setbacks in his recovery from the illness. Through nine games this season, Fitzpatrick has tallied 64 tackles (44 solo), one pass breakup…read more

Not playing in Week 11
Fitzpatrick (illness) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Chargers, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: Fitzpatrick was placed on the COVID-19 list Monday, and head coach Mike Tomlin had already signaled the 24-year-old was not likely to feature this weekend. This might lead Tre Norwood to play a bigger role against Los Angeles.

Not expected to play Sunday
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Fitzpatrick (illness) isn't expected to play in Sunday's contest against the Chargers, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Fitzpatrick was placed on the COVID-19 list Monday after Kimberley A. Martin of ESPN reported the 24-year-old tested positive for the virus. According to Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com, Fitzpatrick is vaccinated, so he would be eligible to play Sunday against the Chargers as long as he's no longer experiencing symptoms and provides two negative tests at least 24 hours apart.

Tests positive for COVID-19
Fitzpatrick tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday, Kimberley A. Martin of ESPNreports.
Analysis: Fitzpatrick is a cornerstone of the Steelers' defense and missing him for any time would be a big blow to the secondary. It is possible he could still return in time for Week 11, but that depends on his vaccination status and ability to produce multiple negative test results. If Fitzpatrick were to miss Sunday, it will likely lead to a bigger workload for Tre Norwood or Miles Killebrew.

Fitzpatrick had 10 tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 27-19 win over the Broncos.

Tallies eight tackles
Fitzpatrick had eight tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Fitzpatrick also blocked a field goal and returned it for a touchdown to close out the first half, but the play was nullified due to a flag for offsides. The 24-year-old has yet to miss a snap for the Steelers this season but is missing those big plays with zero sacks, interceptions, pass breakups or forced fumbles through four games.

Stacks up 10 stops
Fitzpatrick posted 10 tackles (six solo) and a pass breakup in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Bills.
Analysis: Fitzpatrick didn't record more than eight tackles in a game during the 2020 season. It helped that Bills quarterback Josh Allen threw the ball 51 times in the opener. This is certainly a strong start for his fourth NFL season, and Fitzpatrick carries high weekly upside due to his ball-hawking abilities.

Under contract through 2022
The Steelers have exercised the fifth-year option on Fitzpatrick's rookie contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: This was a no-brainer, considering Fitzpatrick has been fantastic and the fifth-year option is guaranteed for injury only. The 24-year-old safety has nine interceptions and three defensive touchdowns in 30 regular-season games for the Steelers, earning First Team All-Pro honors in back-to-back years.

Dominant against Cowboys

To be green dot for defense
Fitzpatrick and Vince Williams will serve as the key communicators for the Steelers defense now that Devin Bush (knee-ACL) is set to undergo season-ending surgery, Mike Prisuta of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Having played 100 percent of Pittsburgh's defensive snaps this season, Fitzpatrick was a seeming fit to shoulder the responsibility of relaying play calls to the defense. Fitzpatrick wasn't quite as impactful over the first quarter of the regular season this year compared to his All-Pro campaign of 2019, but he did come up with a game-breaking contribution during a Week 6 win over Cleveland, registering a 33-yard pick-six off of Baker Mayfield.

Two tackles in loss
Fitzpatrick tallied two tackles, both solo, in Sunday's loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Fitzpatrick has notched only three tackles over the past two weeks, but played every defensive snap over that timespan and should continue to do so. He will have a chance to take advantage of Jets quarterback Sam Darnold, who has been turnover-prone at times this season, in Week 16.

Another takeaway in win
Fitzpatrick recorded six tackles (one solo) and had a fumble recovery in Pittsburgh's 16-10 win over Cincinnati on Sunday.
