The Pittsburgh Steelers could soon add another star wide receiver with contract issues to their trade rumors list. Following the trade of Diontae Johnson, Pittsburgh has been linked to nearly every available receiver in free agency or trade. Despite their efforts, the Steelers have yet to find a suitable replacement. This situation has kept trade rumors alive, especially for receivers facing contract issues.
Currently, Brandon Aiyuk is a top trade target for the Steelers. Aiyuk, looking for a new deal, may play out his final year with the 49ers without an extension. This situation mirrors other notable receivers connected to Pittsburgh.
A new potential trade candidate is CeeDee Lamb. According to CBS Sports, Lamb may skip the Dallas Cowboys’ training camp without a contract extension. Lamb’s exceptional performance has established him as one of the top receivers in the NFL, and acquiring him would require substantial assets and a hefty contract extension.
Lamb’s potential acquisition could impact George Pickens’ future with the Steelers, as the cap space for Lamb’s extension might limit funds for Pickens. Nevertheless, adding a top receiver like Lamb would significantly strengthen the Steelers’ roster, highlighting their commitment to success this season. Attention will be on Lamb and the Cowboys as training camp approaches, with the possibility of escalating contract disputes.
