Hey, he’s getting older, right?

Ladarius Green, released by Steelers after failing physical, goes down as their worst signing in free agency, 4-years, $20 million.
— Ed Bouchette (@EdBouchette) May 18, 2017
No guaranteed money left on Green's deal ($4.75m at signing through SB), but he's gone after just 1 season (6 regular season games).
— Adam Caplan (@caplannfl) May 18, 2017
Ladarius Green was paid $6M in 2016. Cap number is $6,187,500. Cap savings for Steelers is $2,625,000. Save $14M in cash over next three yrs
