Pittsburgh Steelers LB Lawrence Timmons isn’t close to a contract extension, and he’s slated to become a free agent at the end of the season.
Footballguys View: Timmons represents a 15 million dollar cap hit this year, which is too much for a 30-year linebacker who was coming out at times in subpackages for the first time in his career last year. The Steelers have a long history of letting players test the market if their demands are more than they think the player is worth. 2016 seventh-round pick Tyler Matakevich is a deep sleeper in dynasty IDP leagues on the possibility that Timmons walks in 2017.
