Ravens linebacker Patrick Queen to sign a three-year, $41M deal with rival Steelers

According to ESPN’s Marcus Spears, Patrick Queen is following Geno Stone’s path, taking his talents to another AFC North city after agreeing to a 3-year, $41 million deal.

The running mate for Roquan Smith, Queen made his first Pro Bowl this season after logging 125 tackles (78 solos) and matching a career-high with six passes defended. He also added 3.5 sacks, nine tackles for loss, one interception, one forced fumble, and one fumble recovery for the best defense in the league.

Queen is the only NFL defender to have produced at least 400 tackles (445), ten sacks (13.5), and ten takeaways (four interceptions and six fumble recoveries) since entering the league in 2020.

He’ll pair with T.J. Watt to help stop the newest Ravens running back, Derrick Henry.
