Kevin Jobity Jr

Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

Above-replacement production at the DL salary tier earns Kevin Jobity Jr a C+ Contract Value Index. The contract itself—$1.04M AAV across three years—sits at the basement level of the position market, appropriate for an undrafted free agent camp body without meaningful NFL tape to justify premium positioning. Jobity's elite athletic testing provides legitimate developmental intrigue, but the draft's collective pass on him remains the operative signal: no team invested capital, and Pittsburgh is banking on a low-cost lottery ticket rather than a targeted acquisition. With 91 days until regular season kickoff and the Steelers maintaining playoff position at 10-7, Jobity operates squarely in the margins of organizational focus—the recent roster churn (releasing multiple veterans while cycling through practice-squad signings) positions him as one among many depth candidates rather than a priority developmental prospect. His contract structure absorbs minimal cap consequence, which aligns with the risk tolerance appropriate for an athlete facing long odds of making the roster but carrying enough measurable upside to warrant a full training camp evaluation. The CVI reflects fair value for the investment: cheap enough to be consequence-free if he flames out, structured long enough to retain rights if he flashes, but grounded in the reality that without draft recognition, proving it at camp is his only path to meaningful roster consideration.
