Though he spent his first four seasons with the Baltimore Ravens, Patrick Queen certainly sounds glad to be a Steeler. Baltimore may have used a first-round pick on him, but the Steelers gave him $41 million, so that doesn’t hurt. But reviewing the course of the offseason, it feels like it’s more than that.
A year ago, Queen talked about how Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin told him he wasn’t a Raven. At the time, he took offense to it, but now he sees it from a completely different light. As Tomlin recently said, it’s like he was drafted by the Steelers—and he hasn’t even played yet.
