Omar Khan has been the Pittsburgh Steelers’ general manager for about a year and a half. Since then, he has executed nine trades of various kinds—and except in one case has been successful. Typically, he has appeared to be the consensus “winner” most times. August 30 marks the anniversary of his first trade.
The only misstep was the 2022 in-season acquisition of CB William Jackson III from the Washington Commanders. Though the Steelers only exchanged a conditional draft pick, for which the conditions were not satisfied, they still had to pay the remainder of his base salary owed for a player with a known back injury who could not play for them because of said injury.
