Patrick Queen is ready to be a Pittsburgh Steeler.
He tweeted a GIF of “The Joker” saying “Here We Go” after news of his reported contract with the Steelers got out. It’s his way of confirming the report.

The Steelers don’t usually sign players to these types of contracts in free agency so this should tell everyone what they think of Queen.
Queen has spent the last four seasons playing against the Steelers since he was with the Baltimore Ravens but now he’ll get to experience the other side.
The Steelers have been looking for a true difference-maker at the inside linebacker position for the last several years and they’ve now found one.
Queen was great during the 2023 season, finishing with 133 total tackles, 3.5 sacks, an interception, and six passes defended.
He’ll be a do-it-all linebacker for the Steelers and will pair nicely with Elandon Roberts.
With Queen in the fold, the Steelers can now turn their attention to other positions that could use an upgrade, including cornerback and safety. They need a corner to start opposite of Joey Porter Jr. and a strong safety to play next to Minkah Fitzpatrick
