And you get doubled up with (head coach) Mike Tomlin and (pass-rusher) T.J. Watt on that defense. I think it’d be a great thing. Let’s get this thing done. I am just making a personal appeal.

I think we can get up close to seven figures as a feel-good sign of appreciation. Just to kick in, a little incentive for you to be in Pittsburgh this year."
