The Pittsburgh Steelers made a blockbuster trade on Sunday to acquire WR DK Metcalf from the Seattle Seahawks. Theoretically, acquiring Metcalf gives the Steelers one of the top receiver tandems in the league along with WR George Pickens, but Metcalf’s acquisition could spell the end of Pickens’ tenure in Pittsburgh. While he doesn’t have any information that Pickens wants out, Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio doesn’t think Pickens will be in Pittsburgh for 2025.
“I don’t think [George] Pickens is gonna be there. I don’t know this, but I don’t think he’s going to be there. He’s not going to be able to handle this,” Florio said on PFT Live on Monday.
