PITTSBURGH -- Pitt Panthers cornerback M.J. Devonshire has completed his final collegiate season, he's been through testing at the NFL Combine and worked out at his Pro Day. Now all that's left to do is wait for the big day to see which team will take a chance on him.

But while Devonshire waits, he'll take some visits to meet with potential suitors, like the Buffalo Bills and the hometown Pittsburgh Steelers, he told reporters after his Pro Day workout at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex.

With so many of his family members being Steelers fans, Devonshire said it'd be a dream for them to see him play in black and gold. But the Bills love their Pitt defensive backs as well and could add Devonshire to a Panthers-Bill secondary lineage that also includes Damar Hamlin and Dane Jackson.

Devonshire, an Aliquippa native, one-upped his breakout 2022 campaign. He set career-highs in tackles for loss (0.5), interceptions (4) and passes defended (10). He ends his Pitt career with 83 tackles. 1.5 tackles for loss, eight interceptions. 

He won an ACC Championship, was named an All-ACC honorable mention at cornerback and second-team selection at punt returner in 2022 and capped his collegiate career with second-team all-conference honors as a cornerback. But no moment will ever stand out as boldly from Devonshire's career at as the 56-yard "Pitt Six" that was the deciding play in a win over West Virginia during the 2022 revival of the Backyard Brawl.
