The Pittsburgh Steelers have agreed to terms with former Baltimore Ravens LB Patrick Queen on the second day of the NFL’s legal tampering period, and thanks to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, we already have the details of that three-year, $41 million contract.
According to Pelissero, Patrick Queen will receive a $11.59 million signing bonus as part of his contract. He will also reportedly have a 2024 base salary of $2.25 million. This makes his 2024 cash total just $13.84 million, which is just slightly higher than his average yearly value of the deal.
Queen will reportedly be due a roster bonus of $6.67 million in March 2025 to go along with a base salary in 2025 of $7.16 million. In 2026, Queen will be due a March roster bonus of $2.5 million to go along with a base salary of $10.83 million.
Queen’s salary cap charges for 2024, 2025, and 2026 should be $6,113,333, $17,693,333, and $17,193,334, respectively.
