As expected, Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Mike Hilton has also signed the second-round restricted free agent tender that he received from the team back in March, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Hilton, like offensive lineman Matt Feiler, received a second-round restricted free agent tender back in March that will earn him $3.259 million in 2020. Also like Feiler, Hilton did not receive an offer sheet from another team prior to the April 17 deadline.
Hilton, a former undrafted free agent out of Mississippi, has emerged as one of the league’s better nickel corners and one of its best run stoppers.
