Kevin Colbert Says His Contract Doesn’t End Until May 31st

This past weekend, we witnessed outgoing General Manager Kevin Colbert put the finishing touches on what appears to be the latest in a long line of draft class masterpieces that he’s stacked up over his career in the Steel City. The front office work he’s done for the team undoubtedly played a huge part in the two Lombardi Trophies they added over his time. Early in his tenure in 2004, he added the first franchise quarterback the team has seen since the Terry Bradshaw era in Ben Roethlisberger. Fittingly, as he’s closing this chapter of his career, he appears to have added Big Ben’s heir apparent in this year’s draft with the selection of the most pro-ready QB the class had to offer, Heisman finalist Kenny Pickett.
