Fittipaldo: Steelers Know James Daniels Will Make More On Open Market Than Team Would Pay

OG James Daniels has been a solid piece for the Pittsburgh Steelers offensive line over the last two seasons, but 2024 looks like it will be his last season in Black and Gold. Daniels signed a three-year contract ahead of the 2022 season, and he confirmed he’s not negotiating a new deal with the team. As the Steelers traditionally extend their players with one season left on their contract, it doesn’t seem as if Daniels is in the team’s future plans.

Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette believes that the Steelers know Daniels can get more money than they’re willing to pay, comparing the situation to that of Cameron Sutton, who left the team to sign with the Detroit Lions last offseason.
