The Steelers placed the franchise tag on Max Starks today. They will have to pay him the average salary of the top 5 tackles in the league next year, which will be around 8.4 million.
Honestly, this was a move that needed to be made. We couldn’t let Starks get away in free agency, and this gives us more time to work with him on a long-term contract.
