Patrick Queen Wearing Green Dot For Steelers

Despite never being a primary defensive play caller in his NFL career, the Pittsburgh Steelers are entrusting Patrick Queen with the green dot to call plays on defense. That news comes from Bo Marchionte of College2Pro.com.

“Yes,” Queen said via Marchionte about wearing the green dot. “It’s really nothing. Everybody has got to make calls and communicate and talk to each other. Having that green dot is just getting that play out there.”

In Baltimore, Queen said he wore it in practice sometimes. But in games, the duty of calling plays went to Chuck Clark for the first three years Queen was in Baltimore before Roquan Smith took it over after Clark was traded before the 2023 season.
