When the Pittsburgh Steelers selected linebacker Payton Wilson in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft, veteran linebacker Patrick Queen — who had signed as a free agent a little over a month prior — was rather fired up.
Now, after Day 2 of Organized Team Activities on the South Side, Queen is even more ecstatic about having a guy like Wilson in the Steelers’ revamped linebacker room.
“Athlete. Got that mindset. You can kind of tell the way he talks. He’s a really smart player,” Queen said Wednesday, according to video via Aaron Becker on Twitter.
