No terms of the contract have officially been announced but we’ll update this post when they do. Okorafor, the Steelers third round pick in 2018, started 59 games for Pittsburgh from 2018 through 2023. He signed a three-year extension in March of 2022 and became a fixture as the team’s starting right tackle, replacing an injured Zach Banner early in the 2020 season.
