If they end up doing this I can see the NFLPA raising hell in the next CBA and forcing a rule change to where a team can't use any type of tag on the same player 2 years in a row.
Doubt that.
There have been plenty that have been tagged 2 years in a row without things getting stirred up. There wouldnt have been any rule changes if the steelers did that.

but would that fall under the poision pill act with the CBA?
Not sure that would be legal. Not sure its not either. Just asking.
It is illegal to franchise tag in bad faith, even though it happens. If Cousins were tagged 3 times, the NFLPA would probably make a big stink about it for instance.
