Steven Jones

Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

The Steelers secured decent value with Steven Jones at $0.9M for one year, earning a solid C+ CVI that represents a fair deal for interior line depth. At just under a million annually, Pittsburgh is paying bottom-tier starter money for a guard who likely profiles as a serviceable backup or spot starter — the type of low-risk signing that championship contenders need to fill out their roster. The one-year structure keeps Jones motivated while giving the Steelers maximum flexibility to assess whether he can develop into a long-term solution or simply serves as affordable insurance. For a franchise operating in win-now mode, committing minimal guaranteed money to shore up offensive line depth shows smart roster construction. This C+ CVI reflects exactly what it should: an unremarkable but necessary move that won't move the needle dramatically but provides solid value relative to the modest investment.
