According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the Steelers have had discussions with CB Joe Haden about a possible extension.
The veteran corner said he’s optimistic about a deal getting done. Haden is entering the final year of his contract in 2019.
Haden, 30, is a former first-round pick of the Browns back in 2010. He was in the fourth year of his six-year, $74.678 million contract when the Browns officially cut him loose coming out of the preseason in 2017.
It didn’t take long for Haden to reach an agreement with the Steelers on a three-year, $27 million contract.
In 2018, Haden played 15 games for the Steelers and recorded 63 tackles, one forced fumble, two interceptions and 12 pass defenses for the Steelers. Pro Football Focus had him rated as the No. 37 cornerback out of 112 qualifying players.
We’ll have more regarding Haden as the news is available.
