Two Pittsburgh Steelers linebackers are among Over the Cap’s annual list of 100 cut candidates this offseason. Patrick Queen and Malik Harrison made Nick Korte’s list. While Korte acknowledges far fewer than 100 players will be cut this offseason, some who populate his list will be looking for new homes in 2026.
Korte’s list comes without player-by-player analysis, though he lists the contracts for every name. Queen signed a three-year, $41 million deal ahead of the 2024 season. A contract that remains the largest for any outside free agent signing in Steelers history, though WR DK Metcalf’s trade demanded a bigger payday.
