 LATROBE, Pa. (AP) - Pittsburgh Steelers star safety Troy Polamalu signed a four-year contract extension Monday worth $30.19 million that makes him the highest-paid player in team history and one of the NFL's top-paid defensive backs.
The deal guarantees the Steelers will keep their most versatile defensive player through the 2011 season, when he will be 30, meaning Polamalu could negotiate another big-money contract before his NFL career ends.
Even if Polamalu said he didn't want to leave as a free agent after this season and doesn't expect to want to take off four years from now, either.
