One of the biggest off-season topics surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers involves a player not even on the Steelers’ roster. San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk has been frequently linked with the Steelers. When the Steelers and general manager Omar Khan restructured OLB Alex Highsmith’s contract right before the 2024 NFL Draft, speculation went into overdrive.
We all know that nothing happened and the Steelers progressed through the draft weekend as normal. The Steelers have invested in the wide receiver position this offseason, signing Van Jefferson, Quez Watkins, and Scotty Miller among others. They even drafted Roman Wilson that weekend in the third round.
