The Pittsburgh Steelers have finally landed a wide receiver, trading for New York Jets WR Mike Williams. Following a week of speculation following the Jets’ acquisition of WR Davante Adams, Williams is being shipped to Pittsburgh where he’ll have an opportunity to play and boost the Steelers’ passing game.
The Steelers are giving up a 2025 fifth-round pick for Williams.
Williams, 30, was frozen out in New York as the No. 4 receiver behind Garrett Wilson, Allen Lazard, and Adams. Even prior to the Adams’ deal, Williams had caught only 10 passes across the Jets’ first six games for 145 yards and zero touchdowns.
