Steelers: Alex Highsmith extends for 4 years

The agreement between the two parties is for 4 years and 68 million dollars.

A revelation of the Steelers defense in 2022, Alex Highsmith signed for his second year as a full-time starter the best season of his career. Author of 63 tackles, 14.5 sacks and 5 forced fumbles, he was the main attraction of a Pittsburgh pass rush long orphaned by TJ Watt.
