Kuntz, 29, was set to be a restricted free agent, but was not tendered a contract, making him an unrestricted free agent. However, sources tell me the contract was in the works prior to the league's official start to free agency. Kuntz will carry a $1,163,333 cap hit in 2024, followed by cap hits of $1,278,333 in 2025 and $1,323,334 in 2026.
Kuntz, a Pittsburgh native, will remain the long snapper for his hometown team.
