The Steelers’ linebacker made the Top 100 list

The Pittsburgh Steelers now have two representatives thus far on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2025 list. Star defensive lineman Cam Heyward came in at No. 83, which felt very low to some (and rightfully so, he is too low). The second Steeler to make the list is linebacker Patrick Queen, who came in at No. 75.

Queen was the Steelers’ biggest free agent signing of the year in 2024, and signed the largest external free agent deal in team history (three years, $41 million). He was a Pro Bowl selection in his first season with the Steelers after putting up 129 total tackles, six of which were for loss.

The debate here, though, is that Queen was ranked above Heyward, which feels very incorrect. That’s not to knock him. Rather, it’s to highlight how low Heyward is ranked. Regardless, both are deserving of being on the list and will be heavily leaned on by Pittsburgh to get over the playoff-win hump in the AFC.
