Steelers' Markus Golden: Headed to Pittsburgh
Golden and the Steelers agreed Wednesday to a one-year deal, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Golden was released by Arizona this offseason after struggling to make an impact in 2022, recording just 48 tackles and 2.5 sacks across 17 regular-season appearances. The 2015 second-round pick has three career double-digit sack campaigns, most recently in 2021, but he's totaled just 13.5 sacks in his other five seasons combined. In Pittsburgh, Golden will likely compete with rookie fourth-round pick Nick Herbig for snaps behind T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith.

Markus Golden: Will be released
The Cardinals are releasing Golden on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Golden struggled to make an impact in 2022, posting just 48 tackles and 2.5 sacks across 17 regular-season appearances. His release will save the Cardinals approximately $3 million in cap space, per Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site. Golden posted 11 sacks during his first season back with Arizona in 2021 and has three career double-digit sack campaigns, so he could be an intriguing free agent and potential bounce-back candidate in 2023.

Cardinals' Markus Golden: Logs sack against Broncos
Golden finished Sunday's Week 15 loss to Denver with seven tackles (five solo), including one sack.
This was one of Golden's best games of the campaign, as he finished one shy of his season-high tackle mark and recorded his second full sack. The veteran linebacker has played on at least 63 percent of Arizona's defensive snaps in all but two games this season, but he's produced a modest 41 tackles over 14 contests. That's about the same pace that led him to 48 stops over 16 games last season, but he had 11 sacks in that campaign versus just 2.5 so far in 2022.

Cardinals' Markus Golden: Full-go for Week 1

Golden didn't practice Wednesday and was limited Thursday but returned to full participation Friday, putting him in line to play in Week 1. The 2015 second-round pick is coming off the third double-digit sack tally of his career and is set for another major role in 2022.
