Queen recorded 10 tackles (three solo), a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in the Steelers' win over the Ravens on Sunday. Queen was dominant in his first game versus his former team as he forced a turnover in addition to being Pittsburgh's leading tackler. The 2020 first-round has now racked up 72 tackles (36 solo) across the first ten games of the season and will look to add to those totals during the team's Week 12 game versus the Browns.

Queen recorded 13 tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Raiders. Queen is heating up with 37 tackles (18 solo) over the last four games. The 2020 first-round pick posted at least 98 tackles in each of his first four seasons in the league, including a career-best 133 stops last year with the Ravens. He'll remain an excellent IDP option moving forward.

Queen registered eight tackles (four solo) and a pass deflection in Pittsburgh's 20-10 win over the Chargers on Sunday. Queen had his most productive outings of the season as he managed to lead the team in tackles. The 2020 first-round pick has now racked up 14 tackles (nine solo) across his first three games since signing with the Steelers in March.

Queen (groin) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Broncos, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. The first-year Steeler popped up on Pittsburgh's injury report Thursday as a non-participant in practice, but after a full session Friday, it appears he's moved past his groin issue. Queen will look to rebound from a relatively disappointing Steelers debut in which he recorded just two total tackles while playing 50 defensive snaps.

Queen finished the regular season with a career-high 133 tackles to go with six pass breakups, 3.5 sacks and one interception. He appeared in all 17 games and played a career-high 1,073 snaps. After making it through a learning curve in his first two seasons, Queen has come into his own as a major factor in the Baltimore defense. He has logged a combined 250 tackles over the last two seasons and racked up 8.5 sacks in that span. Queen still has some limitations in coverage, having allowed three touchdowns to his assignments, but he also held his opponents to 5.5 YPA when he was targeted this season. The Ravens did not pick up Queen's fifth-year option, so he will be a free agent this coming offseason. Baltimore will have some tough calls to make on that front with the ascendent Justin Madubuike also up for a new deal. The Ravens are already paying Roquan Smith a hefty sum, and it's unclear whether they will be able to pony up another big contract in their linebacking corps.
