Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Patrick Queen could be developing into a key defensive weapon against Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, according to analysis from Steelers Now. Queen was highlighted for his performance during the Steelers' game against the Bengals on September 27, 2026.
The report suggests Queen's skill set may present particular challenges for Burrow, who has historically performed well against Pittsburgh. The Steelers acquired Queen in free agency to bolster their linebacker corps and improve their pass coverage and run defense.
As the AFC North rivalry continues, Queen's development and deployment against Burrow will be a storyline to watch in future matchups between the division rivals.
