After spending the first seven years of his career with the Browns, he’ll now suit up for their AFC North rivals.
Haden will get to square off against his former team two times per year, something that will surely make him happy.
In seven seasons, Haden has recorded 19 interceptions and 100 passes defensed. He has also made 299 tackles and has forced four fumbles.
Haden won’t have to wait long to get his first shot at the Browns, as the Steelers travel to Cleveland to kick off the 2017 season on Sunday, Sept. 10.
