PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers are reportedly looking for a blockbuster trade, calling around to numerous teams in search for a veteran wide receiver. And according to NFL insider Benjamin Allbright, they added the Seattle Seahawks to their list of candidates.
Allbright reported on X that the Steelers have called the San Francisco 49ers about potential trades for Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel, and have also called the Seahawks about acquiring D.K. Metcalf. They called about Aiyuk and Sutton and have been rebuffed, at least with opening talks. Called about DK, I don't believe a trade would get done there until after june first .Metcalf, 26, has recorded 1,000 yards in three of his first five NFL seasons, with last year adding 1,114 yards and eight touchdowns to his resume. The two-time Pro Bowler is entering his sixth season and is set to take on a $24.5 million cap hit in 2024, with a $29.5 million hit next season.
The news of the Steelers calling about Metcalf comes on the same day general manager Omar Khan said on theIf the move did happen post June 1, the Steelers would add a superstar wideout to pair up with George Pickens and rookie Roman Wilson.

But with Metcalf being added to the list, it appears they've extanded their search.
