Chris Boswell, Steelers Agree to Historic Contract, Salary and Full Details Revealed The Pittsburgh Steelers and kicker Chris Boswell have finalized a four-year contract extension worth $28 million, marking a significant milestone in the veteran’s career. The agreement, confirmed by CAA Football to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, was announced on Monday, securing Boswell’s place with the team through the 2030 season. This deal prevents him from hitting free agency in 2027, aligning with his aspirations to remain with the Steelers for the foreseeable future. Boswell, 35, has spent his entire 167-game NFL career with the Steelers, joining the team in 2015. His latest contract, which averages $7 million annually, ties him with Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey as the highest-paid kicker in NFL history. While the deal was anticipated given his consistent performance and status as a top priority for the Steelers, it was reportedly delayed after Boswell sought a new contract in August 2025 without success. The Steelers’ decision to extend Boswell’s contract was further underscored by reports from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, which noted that he was “first in line to get a contract extension” following the 2026 NFL draft. His value to the team has been evident throughout his tenure, particularly on special teams, where he has been a reliable contributor. In recent seasons, Boswell has elevated his game, extending his range and becoming a key asset in critical moments. Boswell’s 2025 season highlighted his continued excellence, as he connected on 84.4% of his field goals and 97.7% of his extra points. His ability to perform under pressure was further demonstrated by his perfect 19-for-19 record in postseason field-goal attempts.#adam_schefter #pittsburgh_steers #chris_boswell #caa_football #pittsburgh_post_gazette
