Report: FB Kyle Juszczyk Turned Down More Money From Steelers To Re-Sign With 49ers

The Pittsburgh Steelers put their best foot forward to sign FB Kyle Juszczyk. But in the end, he decided to stick with the San Francisco 49ers, the team he’s played for the bulk of his career even if it was the club that had cut him just days earlier. According to ESPN’s Nick Wagoner, the Steelers made a better overall offer for Juszczyk than the 49ers.

“A source said Juszczyk took less than what the Pittsburgh Steelers were offering to return to San Francisco,” Wagoner wrote over the weekend.

It’s important to note the overall value of a contract isn’t the only driving factor.
