Schefter: Steelers were close to landing WR Christian Kirk in trade with Jaguars before injury

The Pittsburgh Steelers are running out of time if they want to trade for a receiver. The NFL trade deadline is Tuesday, November 5th at 4:00 EST. And while Pittsburgh is 6-2, another legitimate weapon on the boundary is needed to make their offense that much more dangerous. The Steelers have already swung and missed on Brandon Aiyuk, Davante Adams, and Cooper Kupp. Now, according to Adam Schefter, they missed out on yet another receiver.

Schefter says the Steelers were “in the process” of getting a deal done with the Jacksonville Jaguars that would send wide receiver Christian Kirk to Pittsburgh.
