George Pickens

The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports that the Steelers have been getting calls about the availability of WR George Pickens.

The Steelers currently do not have a pick in tonight’s second round. That was dealt back in March when they acquired wide receiver DK Metcalf from the Seahawks. A potential deal to move Pickens shouldn’t come as a surprise, although the possibility was shut down earlier this week when trade rumors surfaced. “No,” Steelers general manager Omar Khan said on Tuesday when asked about a possible trade involving the four-year veteran. “We’re glad we have George and DK (Metcalf) here. I think they’re gonna be exciting for everyone to watch.” Pickens, who is in the final year of his rookie contract, has led the Steelers in targets, receptions, receiving yards, and TD receptions since entering the NFL in 2022.
