Kwon Alexander

Alexander previously visited with the Steelers back in May. 

Alexander, 28, is a former fourth-round pick of the Buccaneers back in 2015. He played out the final year of his four-year, $2,758,320 contract before agreeing to a four-year contract worth $54 million with the 49ers in 2019. 

He was traded to the Saints midseason in 2020 for LB Kiko Alonso and a conditional fifth-round pick. He tore his Achilles late in the season and was released. 

Alexander returned to the Saints on a one-year deal before joining the Jets for the 2022 season. 

In 2022, Alexander appeared in all 17 games for the Jets and recorded 69 tackles, one forced fumble and a pass defense.
