On Wednesday, the Pittsburgh Steelers announced they agreed to a five-year contract with All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick. While Steelers’ Nation prepared for contract negotiations to drag out through the preseason, it is a welcomed sight to know that one of the Steelers key defenders is locked in through the 2026 season.
The Pittsburgh Steelers official press release stated it was a five-year contract and that the financial terms were not disclosed at this time. Before the announcement, it was reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter that Fitzpatrick signed a four-year extension worth $18.4 million per year and $36 million guaranteed.
