The Pittsburgh Steelers did not tender restricted free agent long snapper Christian Kuntz or any of their other restricted free agents. This means they can all sign wherever they choose. However, Kuntz isn’t going anywhere as he has re-signed with the Steelers. The move keeps Kuntz with the Steelers long-term and for less than what his tender would have been.
Kuntz has spent his entire three-season career with the Steelers after playing his college football at Duquesne.
Confirming what @ChrisHalicke initially reported, the Steelers have agreed to a multi-year deal with long snapper Christian Kuntz. This is the reason they didn't offer a restricted free agent tender.

This leaves defensive lineman Renell Wren, linebacker Chapelle Russell and running back Godwin Igwebuike as the three restricted free agents Pittsburgh chose not to tender. Igwebuike is the one guy we might expect to see the Steelers bring back at some point.
