Steelers Rumors: GM Kevin Colbert Won't Renew Contract, Stay Through 2022 NFL Draft

Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert is reportedly not expecting to remain with the organization after his contract expires following the 2022 NFL Draft.

Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reported Colbert plans to stay on through the draft but retire "sooner rather than later."

Colbert has been with the Steelers organization since 2000, becoming the team's first general manager in 2010. He has been working on year-to-year contracts in recent seasons to maintain his flexibility as his career winds down.

"My status is what it is, and everybody's comfortable with that," Colbert told reporters before the start of the 2020 season.
