The Pittsburgh Steelers believe in big Zach Banner and his future, and they showed that this offseason when they signed him to a two-year, $9.5 million contract, which included a $3.25 million signing bonus and a year-one salary of $1.25 million.
While it’s a contract that is slightly backloaded ($5 million base salary in 2022), it is notable given that he only has one career start, during which he suffered a torn ACL, and hasn’t played since then for obvious reasons. They expect him to retake his starting job this offseason which he won in training camp last year.
