Going into training camp, the Pittsburgh Steelers were already lacking notable depth and proven producers at the wide receiver position. They have George Pickens coming back with the third year receiver coming off his first 1,000+ yard season in 2023, but outside of him, the depth chart lacks a notable name.
They signed Van Jefferson, Quez Watkins and Scotty Miller this offseason, and drafted Roman Wilson in the third round. Calvin Austin III is also returning, but none of the veteran options bring the upside former Steelers WR Diontae Johnson did as a starter before getting traded to the Carolina Panthers this offseason.
