Steelers Free Up Cash for Joey Porter Jr | Pittsburgh Steelers News

Steelers just freed up nearly $18 million in cap space by restructuring DK Metcalf’s contract, turning part of his salary into a bonus — a move widely seen as paving the way to sign Joey Porter Jr. to a long-term deal. With Metcalf’s massive 4-year, $132M extension already in place, this strategic cash injection supports Pittsburgh’s push to lock down key young talent like Porter Jr., following extensions for Herbig, Washington, and Benton. It’s clear: the Steelers are building for the future, keeping their rising stars in black and gold. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
