Steelers WR trade targets narrowed down to three names

Behind the Steel Curtain • • sports

Key Points:

  • The Pittsburgh Steelers are actively involved in wide receiver trade rumors ahead of the NFL trade deadline, seeking to bolster their receiving corps due to injuries and underperformance.
  • Injuries to Michael Pittman and Roman Wilson, combined with a disappointing season from DK Metcalf, have limited the Steelers' passing game despite their strong 6-2 record.
  • ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler highlights Brian Thomas Jr. and Josh Downs as key trade targets for the Steelers, with Calvin Ridley also considered a potential backup option.
  • Thomas Jr. has been a popular trade candidate after falling behind other receivers in Jacksonville, while Downs would be the second Colts receiver Pittsburgh has pursued this year.
  • The Steelers hope adding a reliable wide receiver will enhance their offense and improve their chances for a successful playoff run in January.
