FILE - In this July 28, 2019, file photo, Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden (23) is shown during an NFL football training camp practice in Latrobe, Pa. Haden called it two years ago when the veteran cornerback practically sprinted to Pittsburgh shortly after the Cleveland Browns released him on the eve of the 2017 regular season. “When I came here I didn't think I was going to leave,” Haden said. And he’s not. At least not for a while after signing a new three-year, $32 million contract that runs through the 2021 season, a testament to the club’s faith the 30-year-old two-time Pro Bowler isn’t slowing down as he prepares for his 10th season.
