Big Money in Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh Steelers were able to keep their big name stars so the team can still be elite for next season. The Steelers signed superstar wide receiver Antonio Brown for four years extension $65 million. This makes Brown the highest paid receiver to ever play the game. This well deserved because Brown has been one of the best receivers in the League for the past four years. Brown Snagged 481 receptions for  6315 yards and 43 touchdowns. Brown will continue to play for the Steelers till 2021.

Pittsburgh Steelers also put the franchise tag on running back Le'veon Bell. Bell is a fourth year pro out of Michigan ST. Bell has been monster for Steelers in his career as he already rushed for over 4000 yards and has reached the end-zone 26 times. Despite some injuries Bell has dealt with he has still been a intrigual part to the Steelers offense. Steelers offense should be a force to reckon with when they have superstars in almost every position on the offensive end. I expect to see the Steelers to be title contenders as long as they have Bell and Brown healthy in the offense.
