Restructures contract
Holcomb agreed to a revised contract Thursday and will remain with the Steelers this coming season, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Prior to the adjustment, Holcomb was set to count $7.6 million against the salary cap, per Gerry Dulac Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, but the move will evidently save the Steelers $4 million against the cap and keep the linebacker with the team for his third consecutive season. The 28-year-old hasn't played since suffering a severe knee injury during Week 9 of the 2023 season, which some speculated could have been career threatening. Holcomb was fully practicing before the team's wild-card loss to the Ravens, so it's presumed he'll be available at the start of training camp next year.

Holcomb was a dominant defender over his four years in Washington, and he signed a three-year contract with the Steelers ahead of the 2023 campaign. He had a productive start to the year, but he sustained a season-ending knee injury in Week 9. It's not yet clear when Holcomb will be able to return, but the Steelers have been optimistic that he isn't dealing with a career-ending injury. If Holcomb can return to health at some point in 2024, he should have plenty of chances to rack up tackles alongside T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith, but Holcomb's return timetable is unclear.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be done in Pittsburgh
Holcomb could be released with an injury settlement to create cap space after the Steelers drafted Payton Wilson in the third round of the 2024 Draft and signed Patrick Queen as a free agent, former ESPN radio host David Todd reports.
ANALYSIS
Holcomb signed a three-year deal with Pittsburgh last March after a productive if injury-marred stint in Washington, but the health issues followed him to the AFC North, and he played only eight games for the Steelers before suffering a season-ending knee injury. There's no guarantee the 27-year-old will be recovered in time for Week 1, and given the additions the team has made to the linebacker room, the Steelers could be planning to move on. Releasing Holcomb could create $4 million in cap space.
