Steelers' Timmons on impending free agency: 'I'm die hard Pittsburgh'

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Lawrence Timmons is slated to become an unrestricted free agent but doesn't plan to test the market.

Timmons spent his entire 10-year career with the Steelers since being drafted in the first round of the 2007 NFL Draft out of Florida State.

It appears that the 30-year-old will try to strike a new deal with the team before free agency commences.

"I'm die hard Pittsburgh. This is where I want to be," Timmons said via NFL Network's Aditi Kinkhabwala.

Timmons was an integral part of the Steelers' defense, recording 114 tackles, 2.5 sacks, a forced fumble, and two interceptions in 16 games this season.
