When Cole Holcomb was signed by Pittsburgh earlier this week, there was a clear sign that the team was transitioning the linebacking corps. 

This would continue with Elandon Roberts and his contract information, meaning we now have full details on the two cogs in the middle. 

Per Aaron Wilson of KPRC Houston, here's how the contract breaks down:

Base Salaries

2023: $1.08 million

2024: $6 million

2025: $4 million 

Holcomb has $4.92 million fully guaranteed via a signing bonus and will make an additional $2 million if he's on the roster come the third day of the league year in 2025.

Holcomb's Cap Hit

2023: $2.7 million (1.2% of total cap)

2024: $7.6 million (3.0% of total cap)

2025: $7.6 million (2.7% of total cap)

Holcomb's APY of $6 million ranks him 22nd amongst active linebackers in average salary per year.
