News out of Steelers Headquarters is that starting left tackle Max Starks has signed a 6 year, $105 million dollar deal with a $17.5 million signing bonus.
"The Pittsburgh Steelers are happy to announce that Max will be staying with us on a long term arrangement. He is obviously a key element to our success last season and was rewarded appropriately. He is very excited to be here & is lokoing forward to assuming a leadership role with the Steelers. Omar Khan has worked tirelessly for the last 12 minutes to get this deal worked out- a deal everybody is happy with." said Steelers Kevin Colbert.
"Max was a key player for us down the stretch & proved to be one of the premier offensive lineman in the NFL last season. He's big, moves fast & has cool hair" said Head Coach Mike Tomlin.
"I always knew Max would be paid his worth" said Max Starks' mother- Maureen Starks.
When asked of his reaction to his new contract, Starks said "bout time"- obviously referring to the bad taste left in his mouth after not beating Marvel Smith out in training camp last off season.
Starks looked to be bigger in the press conference & said "I'm aiming to be the biggest man in the NFL. I'm at 410lbs right now- I'm hoping for 450lbs by training camp"
More details to follow.
