at their long list of impending free agents for 2019 Mike Wagner Jersey , confirming the re-signing of Kameron Canaday and Jordan Dangerfield to one-year contract extensions on Monday.Both players were set to become exclusive rights free agents this offseason and would not have been able to negotiate with any other team apart from the Steelers during free agency. Canaday will have signed a contract worth $720,000 in 2019, while Dangerfield will have received a deal worth $645,000. Neither contract will include a signing bonus and there will be no dead money associated with their release if they do not make the opening day roster. Canaday will be entering his third season with the Steelers in 2019 since joining the team as free agent in February of 2017. Initially released in May of that year after Pittsburgh had selected long snapper Colin Holba in the sixth round of the NFL draft Mark Barron Jersey , he would be re-signed only a few weeks later and eventually beat out the rookie for the starting role during training camp. Despite having been in the league since 2013 after he was signed by the Buffalo Bills as an undrafted free agent, Dangerfield still only has two accrued seasons on his resume. The first few years of his professional career were spent on the Steelers’ practice squad and an injury ended his season prematurely last year leading to his release. He would be re-signed to the practice squad again later in that season. When called upon, Dangerfield has been a valuable contributor on special teams and a reliable backup at safety. He would start the final game of the 2018 season at free safety for only the third start of his career. These two names join Zach Banner as the only exclusive right free agents Pittsburgh have re-signed so far this offseason, as we reported as few weeks ago. His deal was also a one-year contract worth $645 Bud Dupree Jersey ,000.

And thanks to a sliding scale for rookie contracts agreed to under the terms of the CBA, the former Michigan linebacker should already have a good idea of how much being drafted by the Steelers will earn him. Using figures generated by OverTheCap.com Javon Hargrave Jersey , we can now also work out how much Bush will cost Pittsburgh over the length of his rookie deal and how it will impact their salary cap position this year. A number that will be much higher than it would otherwise have been if the Steelers had remained at pick No.20. Bush is projected to earn a total of just under $19 million as part of a four-year deal that will include a signing bonus worth around $11.75 million. Like all players selected in the draft this year, he will receive a base salary of just $495,000 in year one. a contract worth a total of $5.5 million, one that would have come with a cap hit of just over $1 million in year-one. Costing the Steelers less than $3.5 million against the cap this season Sean Davis Jersey , Bush will actually only use up around $2.86 million in salary cap space after displacement. As a first-round draft pick, Pittsburgh will also hold a fifth-year option on his contract under current CBA rules.
