Tyler Matakevich Signs With Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed linebacker Tyler Matakevich to a one-year deal. The veteran linebacker is a former seventh-round pick of the Steelers. He spent his first four seasons of his career with Pittsburgh. After that, Matakevich headed to the Buffalo Bills for the next four seasons. He recorded 23 tackles during his first season in Buffalo, but never surpassed that total over the next three seasons. Matakevich has been mainly playing on special teams lately. This is a depth signing as Matakevich will likely end up as a third or fourth string linebacker.

Tyler Matakevich Re-Signs With Bills

The Buffalo Bills and linebacker Tyler Matakevich agreed to a two-year deal on Monday, according to sources. The deal will void after the first year for the linebacker and special-teamer. Financial terms of the contract were not disclosed. He'll return to the Bills for a fourth straight season in 2023 after racking up 29 solo tackles, one interception and three passes defensed in 49 games (zero starts) for the Bills the last three seasons. The 30-year-old mostly plays special teams, as he played two defensive snaps in 2022. Matakevich is completely off the fantasy radar in IDP leagues.

The 28-year-old was a seventh-round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers back in 2016. In 79 career games (one start), Matakevich has 100 combined tackles (74 solo) and three passes defensed. He spent the first four seasons of his career with the Steelers before joining the Bills for the 2020 campaign.
