Summary
Steelers are eyeing a big payday for nose tackle Keeanu Benton, rumored to be in the $16–18M range annually — a massive leap for a defensive lineman. After dominating last season and following in the footsteps of other top-2023 draft picks who’ve already locked in extensions, Benton’s pass-rush prowess is making him a hot commodity in a booming market for interior rushers. With Joey Porter Jr. and Broderick Jones also potentially on the horizon, the Steelers are clearly betting big on their young core — and Benton’s contract could be the next headline-maker.
