Steelers Reportedly Have Shown Interest In These Two Wide Receivers

Pittsburgh has some work to do

Will the Pittsburgh Steelers find a way to add another playmaker to the offense?

There isn’t much time left until the Nov. 5 trade deadline and therefore we will find out an answer soon.

There has been speculation and rumors building for months as the Steelers have tried to improve the offense. The deadline now is right around the corner, and the Steelers don’t have much time left. Pittsburgh hasn’t been able to make the move it has wanted to, but it isn’t from a lack of trying.

Pittsburgh has been linked to every big-name player who has been available. The Steelers have tried to make moves, but have been unable to do so.

Will the Steelers get a move done before the Tuesday deadline? Maybe. They still are trying and have had discussions about New York Jets receiver Mike Williams and Carolina Panthers receiver Adam Thielen, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

“The Steelers have been making calls and checking on any and all available wide receivers before Tuesday’s 4 p.m. ET trade deadline, including the Jets’ Mike Williams and the Panthers’ Adam Thielen, according to league sources,” Schefter said. “The Steelers will continue pushing in an attempt to improve by the deadline, but they are far from the only team looking to better position themselves for the second half of the season.”

Either Williams or Thielen could make a lot of sense for the Steelers. Pittsburgh needs a playmaker to pair with George Pickens so keep an eye on the duo ahead of the Nov. 5 trade deadline.
