“Pittsburgh Steelers Strike a Two-Year, $6 Million Deal with Multifaceted Return Specialist Cordarrelle Patterson”
According to sources from ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Pittsburgh Steelers have reached a two-year, $6 million agreement with the versatile return specialist Cordarrelle Patterson. With the 2023 season witnessing historically low rates of kickoff returns, the revised regulations are anticipated to place greater emphasis on the return game, underscoring the significance of Patterson’s role.
Having previously played under current Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith during his tenure with the Atlanta Falcons, Patterson brings a wealth of experience to the table. Since entering the NFL in 2013, Patterson has amassed nine kick return touchdowns, establishing himself as the league’s all-time leader in this category. According to ESPN Stats & Information, he boasts three times as many kick return touchdowns as any other player over this period.
