The Pittsburgh Steelers are making a massive addition to their defense, reaching an agreement with former Baltimore Ravens linebacker Patrick Queen, according to @RapSheet.
The deal is reported to be for three years and worth $41 million. Queen, a former first-round pick, is coming off a standout season in which he earned Pro Bowl and Second-team All-Pro honors while helping lead the Ravens to the top seed in the AFC. By joining the Steelers, he stays within the AFC North division to join Mike Tomlin's squad.
Last season, Queen recorded a career-high 133 tackles, 3.5 sacks, and an interception. His arrival provides a significant boost to a Pittsburgh linebacker corps that dealt with numerous injuries throughout the 2023 campaign. Queen has been remarkably durable throughout his career, starting all 67 games since entering the league in 2020.
