Minkah Fitzpatrick must be wishing he could have gotten out of Miami sooner.
The former Alabama defensive back is showing why he was worth a Pittsburgh Steelers’ first-round draft pick. In Sunday’s Los Angeles-Pittsburgh game, Fitzpatrick was in the right place at the right time to scoop up a fumble and take it to the house for six points.

Fitzpatrick is a relatively new Steeler, but he has already achieved an impressive franchise feat, becoming the first Pittsburgh defender to score touchdowns in back-to-back games since Sam Washington in 1984. Fitzpatrick had a 96-yard pick-six last week.
