NFL Season 2025-2026

DK Metcalf to the Steelers

Trade Alert!

Pittsburgh lands a major weapon, acquiring Pro Bowl WR DK Metcalf from Seattle. He signs a 5-year, $150M extension and instantly becomes the Steelers’ top target alongside George Pickens. Metcalf, who racked up 992 yards and 5 TDs in 2024, will wear No. 4 as the team reshapes its offense around a still-uncertain QB situation.

The Pittsburgh Steelers opted not to address their quarterback need early in the 2025 NFL Draft, instead selecting Ohio State’s Will Howard in the sixth round. While Howard adds depth, he’s viewed more as a developmental project than an immediate starter. Meanwhile, the team remains in active talks with veteran free agent Aaron Rodgers, who could serve as a short-term solution for the upcoming season.

More updates expected as negotiations progress.
