Steelers Reportedly Preparing ‘Aggressive Offer’ For Superstar Receiver

The Pittsburgh Steelers at least are looking to bring in a superstar receiver in the near future.

This doesn’t mean the Steelers will be able to do so, but it sounds like they at least are trying. Pittsburgh has been looking to add to the receiver room over the last few months and initially tried to land Brandon Aiyuk in a deal with the San Francisco 49ers. It seemed like the Steelers were close, but he ended up signing a new deal with San Francisco at the 11th hour.

Now, it seems like the Steelers are attempting to land a different star. Las Vegas Raiders superstar Davante Adams has made it known that he wants out. A trade seems like a near guarantee right now, although it’s unclear where he will land. A player of his caliber will have plenty of interest in the trade market.

Pittsburgh has been a team that has been mentioned since the first mention of Adams wanting out. The franchise reportedly is preparing an “aggressive offer” for Adams, according to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini.

“The Pittsburgh Steelers, who you may recall were interested in trading for Brandon Aiyuk before he signed an extension with San Francisco this summer, are also in touch with the Raiders’ front office,” Russini said. “I’m told Pittsburgh is making an aggressive offer.”

Adams could be the final piece needed for Pittsburgh. The Steelers look like a playoff team already without a deep receiver room. Landing a superstar like Adams could take them to another level.
