Steelers planejam renovações para jogadores da classe de draft de 2023

O Pittsburgh Steelers pretende oferecer extensões contratuais plurianuais a vários membros de sua classe de draft de 2023 nesta intertemporada. Se bem-sucedidas, as movimentações marcariam o primeiro feito desse tipo com uma classe em 15 anos.

A última vez que a equipe conseguiu múltiplas renovações de uma mesma classe de draft foi com o grupo de 2011. Aquela classe produziu Cam Heyward, que assinou quatro extensões, além de Marcus Gilbert e Cortez Allen com contratos de longa duração. Desde então, os Steelers estenderam apenas sete escolhas individuais de draft, nenhuma da mesma classe, incluindo jogadores como T.J. Watt e Pat Freiermuth.
