Free Agent Status: Unrestricted

2021 Salary Cap Hit: $4,596,000 ($3,904,000 in 2022 from void-year accrual)

2021 Season Breakdown:

Things could have gone better for Eric Ebron during the 2021 season. It immediately went downhill when the Pittsburgh Steelers used a second-round draft pick on tight end Pat Freiermuth, who fairly quickly supplanted the veteran as the number one at the position.

Before that, in order to free up some cap space, the front office restructured Ebron’s contract, which had only the one year remaining, adding four void years and converting $4.
