"Steelers Secure Cordarrelle Patterson Amid NFL Kickoff Rule Changes"
The Pittsburgh Steelers are reportedly signing Cordarrelle Patterson, the NFL's all-time leader in kickoff return touchdowns, to a two-year, $6 million deal in response to the NFL's new kickoff rule changes, which heavily incentivize having a good return man. The changes require teams to start returning kicks again, as kicks landing in certain zones must be returned, leading to more kickoff returns and potentially benefiting players like Patterson.
