Steelers starting point guard James Daniels may be entering his final year in Pittsburgh.
Daniels said the Steelers told him that I won’t extend it before the season, according to TheAthletic.com. And the Steelers generally don’t talk about contracts with players during the season. Which would mean Daniels will play out the final year of his contract in 2024 and hit free agency in 2025.
Daniels, 26, signed a three-year, $26.5 million contract with the Steelers two years ago and started 32 games in his first two seasons in Pittsburgh. It’s a little surprising that the Steelers aren’t interested in signing him to an extension.
But after the Steelers spent a first-round pick on offensive tackle Troy Fautanu, a second-round pick on center Zach Frazier and a fourth-round pick on guard Mason McCormick, it’s clear that revitalizing their offensive line was an off-season priority. . More changes to the Steelers’ offensive line could come next offseason.
