The Steelers’ star linebacker says Baltimore didn’t want to bring him back
This week’s matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens feels like the biggest matchup between the two rivals in recent memory. The Steelers are 7-2, the Ravens are 7-3, and the AFC north lead is on the line in Pittsburgh in Week 11.
One of the bigger storylines throughout this offseason in Pittsburgh has been the acquisition of star linebacker Patrick Queen, who spent the first four years of his career with the Baltimore Ravens and played at a high level in doing so. Queen signed with the Steelers in March and has enjoyed playing the villain ever since, taking every chance to throw shade at Baltimore. Speaking with the media on Wednesday, Queen revealed that the Ravens didn’t want to bring him back in 2024.
“I wasn’t wanted back,” Queen said. “I didn’t get the offer back. It was definitely kind of upsetting. Being there for four years and the bond that you grow with your teammates.”
