Steelers Daily News & Links: Your daily stop for all of the news and links
🏈 Las Vegas Raiders and Pittsburgh Steelers fans started speculating after George Pickens posted a photo of him with Tom Brady on his Instagram Story. Brady is the co-owner with the Raiders and Pickens is heading into a contract year.
Of course, the post could mean nothing, but there have been rumblings that Pickens might be on the trade block.
🏈 Kyle Juszczyk joined Sirius XM radio and detailed some of his contract and brief free agency process. The Steelers reportedly offered more money to Juszcyk, but he felt at home in San Fran.
“At the end of the day, it was too much to leave home. I wanted to be a Niner,” Juszcyk said on SiriusXM NFL Radio.
🏈 The Cleveland Browns posted a new rendering of the their proposed domed Brook Park stadium.
🏈 ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that the Pittsburgh Steelers offered Justin Fields a contract similar to the New York Jets’ offer, but he chose the Jets over the Steelers.
“Look, last week or a week and a half ago, they put together an offer for Justin Fields that I was told was very competitive with what the Jets offered him, which was two years 40 million with 30 million guaranteed,” Fowler said on the Dan Patrick Show. “Something went off where he chose the Jets and he must have felt the love more from the Jets than he did the Steelers who essentially benched him last year for Russell Wilson. So he gets a fresh start. I do believe they were all in on Fields. I don’t know if they had Fields ahead of Rodgers, but they were willing to do Fields. Like both sides at one point were open to it. It didn’t work.”
🏈 ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper doesn’t believe either Shedeur Sanders or Jaxson Dart will be there for the Steelers at 21 overall.
🏈 NFL insider Josina Anderson said one league source told her on Tuesday that the Steelers feel like they’re “getting closer” on their quarterback situation. In their mind, that optimism pertained to Aaron Rodgers.
🏈 Colin Cowherd of FS1 believes Najee Harris will flourish with the Los Angeles Chargers.
“J.K. Dobbins, when healthy last year, was very good for the Chargers, and Najee Harris is a better player,” Cowherd said on The Herd. “A couple years ago, there was a guy named Kevin Dotson, he was a guard. I read a story that he wasn’t going to start in Pittsburgh. Sean McVay took him, became the PFF number one rated guard for two of the last three years. Stabilized the interior of their o-line. You find these outdated offensive cultures, and these offensive coaches cherry pick and know Dotson, Najee Harris, this kid’s gonna flourish.”
🏈 Former Steelers head coach and Hall of Famer Bill Cowher thinks Russell Wilson is the best choice to be the Steelers quarterback.
🏈 The Steelers official history account on X remembered Hall of Fame center Mike Webster on his birthday on Tuesday. Webster would have been 73.
🏈 Russell Wilson got in some offseason work in Southern California.
