Once the NFL Network announced that Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cameron Heyward was the No. 83 player on their Top 100 players for 2025, we figured we'd have a nice, long wait until we saw another Steeler on the list. But lo and behold, in something of a surprise, the NFL Network announced that Steelers inside linebacker Patrick Queen is the No. 75 player.
Queen came to the Steelers as a free agent in 2024 from the Baltimore Ravens . Queen got off to something of a slow start, but by the second half of the season, you could see he was much more comfortable in the offense and started making more plays.
2024 wasn't Queen's best statistical season, but he did finish with a team-high 129 total tackles.
This season, Queen should be able to build on 2024 and produce even better paired up in the middle of the Steelers defense with Payton Wilson .
