The Pittsburgh Steelers’ WR2 spot is up for grabs, even with the 2024 season right around the corner.
If they trade for Brandon Aiyuk, George Pickens will be able to take on that role. If they don’t, Pickens will remain the WR1, and there will be an internal battle for the second spot.
The seeming veteran frontrunner for the role is Van Jefferson, whom the Steelers signed this offseason. While he’s never had a real breakout over his four-year NFL career, he did post over 800 receiving yards in 2021, and there’s some confidence that he can at least be serviceable.
