Believing He Would Be Drafted By Steelers, Miles Boykin ‘Hated’ Franchise While With Baltimore

Throughout the process leading up to the 2019 NFL Draft, there was very clear, legitimate interest between the Pittsburgh Steelers and then-Notre Dame star receiver Miles Boykin.

In typical AFC North fashion though, the Baltimore Ravens swooped in to grab the Notre Dame product away from the Steelers, adding a big, physical, speed threat on the outside that they hoped could pair with star quarterback Lamar Jackson to make the Ravens’ offense dynamic.

That didn’t quite happen in Boykin’s career in Baltimore as he recorded just 33 receptions for 470 yards and seven touchdowns in three seasons with Baltimore before being cut, eventually landing with the Steelers in the end.
