‘He’s Just A Pro’: Mike Tomlin Explains Why Steelers Brought Back OLB Markus Golden

The Pittsburgh Steelers brought back a familiar face this morning when they re-signed OLB Markus Golden. He was with the team for the 2023 season as the top OLB depth behind T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith. In limited snaps he performed well, and with a pair of injuries at the position on Wednesday’s practice, the Steelers made the move to bring Golden back.

Mike Tomlin was asked about Golden’s return after practice on Thursday.

“He is just a really solid veteran. He is low to no maintenance. He’s a pro,” Tomlin said in a video posted on the Steelers’ website.
