On Wednesday, the Pittsburgh Steelers announced their first free-agent signing of the offseason. The team posted on Twitter they had signed exclusive rights free agent long snapper Christian Kuntz to a one-year contract. The contract will pay Kuntz $940,000 in 2023.
2023 will mark Kuntz’s third season as the team’s long snapper. Kuntz has been very consistent throughout his career and while this signing was something of a foregone conclusion, you cannot undervalue how important it is to keep one of the three stars of the kicking game.
