The Steelers are still dealing with the repercussions of those draft failures, and very well could draft a center and a tackle to replace Moore and Cole, who replaced Green, this year.
With Cole released, the Steelers will need to bolster the center position between now and April if they want to avoid a similar situation to 2021. There are several options on the free agent market, with recently released former Los Angeles Rams starter Brian Allen and ex-Tennessee Titans center Aaron Brewer, who has a connection to new Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, standing out.
The Pittsburgh Steelers got news of what it would cost to pick up the fifth-year option of running back Najee Harris, keeping him under contract through the 2025 season.
Due to the amount of playing time Harris has accumulated during the last three seasons, the Steelers will need to pay him for the basic fifth-year option on top of a “playing time” addition. That number comes out to $6,790,000 for his option.
