PITTSBURGH — This story originally appeared on Sports Now Group Pittsburgh.

The Pittsburgh Steelers and inside linebacker Cole Holcomb have agreed to a revised contract for the 2025 season, according to a report by Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

The details of the new contract have not been reported, but Pelissero said that the change reduces his salary cap hit by $4 million for the 2025 season.

Holcomb is entering the third and final season of a three-year, $18 million deal he signed with the Steelers in 2023. Holcomb suffered a major knee injury midway through the 2023 season that caused him to miss all of 2024.
