The Top DST To Start in Week 2

Cleveland Browns, DST

Analysis by Kyle Yates | The Browns were a dominant defense in Week 1 against Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals. Burrow was under duress almost every single snap; their offensive line simply didn’t have an answer for Myles Garrett.

Going into this matchup on Monday Night Football against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Browns’ defense should be viewed as a top-10 play in Week 2. Kenny Pickett and Co. showed very little this past week against the 49ers, and Cleveland showed enough last week to have confidence in starting them.
