The Pittsburgh Steelers made a huge signing to help their defense in 2024.

On Tuesday, the team went out and signed former Baltimore Ravens linebacker Patrick Queen.

The Steelers are signing LB Patrick Queen to a three-year, $41 million contract.

Queen fills a huge hole for Pittsburgh at linebacker and adds another layer to the NFL’s best rivalry as they take one of their best players.

He’s young, at just 24 years old. He is also a former first-round draft pick who is coming off a productive season. He was named a Pro Bowler last season.

In 2023, Queen appeared in all 17 games for the Ravens and recorded 133 total tackles, nine tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, one interception, a forced fumble, one recovery and six pass defenses.
