The Brandon Aiyuk saga is finally over. After five long months of speculation and waves of rumors that suddenly reached a standstill for the three weeks leading up to the deal, Aiyuk signed a reported four year, $120 million extension to remain with the San Francisco 49ers. I will admit that it is a relief to no longer have to hear about Aiyuk’s hold-in on every television program, but the Pittsburgh Steelers are now left with a problem.
Omar Khan created a missing piece to the Steelers’ puzzle in March when he traded Diontae Johnson to the Carolina Panthers.
