If you can’t beat them, sign their players.

Kazee signs with the Browns shortly after security, Juan Thornhill left Cleveland in a free agency to join the Steelers, essentially exchanging places in AFC North.
Kazee initially joined the Falcons of Atlanta as a fifth round recovery choice in 2017 and played four seasons there. The product of the state of San Diego then signed with the Cowboys of Dallas as a free agent in 2021, according to his former head coach of Falcons, Dan Quinn, who was hired as a defensive coordinator in Dallas.
After a single season with the Cowboys, Kazee signed with the Steelers, where he played 2022-24.
While with the Steelers, Kazee appeared in 38 games with 14 departures and amassed five interceptions, two forced escapes, 112 plated in total with 79 solo.

The time of Kazee to Pittsburgh was not without problems, because he had to serve a suspension of three games in 2022 for having violated the league police and missed the last three games of 2023 with an illegal blow at the head of Colts Wideout Michael Pittman Jr. in the week 15.
On eight seasons and 107 appearances with 63 departures, Kazee posted 17 interceptions, seven forced escapes, two recovery escaped, 363 plated in total with 251 solo and three for the loss.
The Steelers have five security on the list while the Minicamp recruit broke out on Sunday, notably Thornhill, Sebastian Castyro, Miles Killebrew, Minkah Fitzpatrick and Deshon Elliott.
