He now stands to handle a rotational role in with the Lions, behind starting safeties Brian Branch (Achilles) and Kerby Joseph (knee).

Takes step back in 2025 Clark logged 51 tackles (31 solo) along with three pass defenses and a forced fumble over 15 regular-season appearances in 2025.

Impact Clark joined the Steelers on a one-year contract ahead of the 2025 campaign, but his production declined during his first year with his new team.

Clark will be an unrestricted free agent during the offseason and could have to settle for another short-term deal ahead of his age-31 season.
