The Pittsburgh Steelers have made a major splash by trading for three-time All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey, according to ESPN. This move shows the front office is serious about contending right now. Ramsey is still one of the top defensive backs in the NFL and instantly makes the Steelers defense more dangerous.
As part of the trade, Ramsey will receive a $1.5M raise this season, bringing his 2025 compensation to $26.6M. That bump in pay shows how much Pittsburgh values what he brings to the table. They are not just bringing in a big name but a proven cornerback that can help improve this secondary.
