    Troy's new deal is reportedly a $20 Mil extension, that creates $4.5 Mil in cap relief this year.

    Will this ensure he will retire a steeler ?

    He'll be 35 during 2016 season... I think it will be pretty likely to think so.

    I'm more concerned with him retiring with 3 or 4 Steeler rings

    I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This ensures he retires a Steelers. He still has probowl skills and was only stifled last year because he had to play a LB/SS role because of a lack of strong ILB play on the field.

    This extension and the Heath extension were exactly what I was hoping we could get done with both guys. These are good deals that go a long way toward keeping hope alive for a quick return to form. I am also happy that we have not seen a similar extension for Ike. I think Ike may be able to contribute for 1 more year, but not at his current salary, and it's not worth extending him just to kick the salary cap can down the road for him. For me it's a drastic pay cut or release for Ike.
