On April 5th, Kyle Duggers bouncing around the AFC North again, folks. After a quick stop with the Pittsburgh Steelers last season, traded over from the New England Patriots at the deadline, he's now locked in a one-year deal with the Cincinnati Bengals. He's hyped for this fresh chapter after admitting the past two years were tough. Pittsburgh scooped him up when their safety crew got hammered by injuries. Dishon, Elliott out for the season, Jibril Pepper's banged up, Chuck Clark. Sick? Duggers started all nine games he played, racking up 42 tackles, a sack and two picks, one a pick-six. But his snaps dropped off toward the end, signaling he was on his way out. Dugger himself put it plain, a fresh start and new opportunity, and he's thankful. Steelers fans aren't sweating it too much with all the off-season shakeups, especially a safety where the whole room flipped. Now Pittsburgh's rebuilding back there without Dugger, Clark heading to Detroit, Pepper's still free agency shopping. They grab Pittsburgh kid Jaquan Brisker and Darnell Savage on one-year deals with Elliott eyeing a comeback.

New defensive coordinator, Patrick Graham's mixing it up under fresh leadership after Mike Tomlin stepped down. Expect some fireworks next season, Steelers and Bengals clash twice in the division, and Duggers ready to ball out against his old squad. Stay tuned for How It Unfolds.
