Steelers Working On Trade For Brandon Aiyuk
3 months ago

The Pittsburgh Steelers are working hard on a trade to acquire wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk from the San Francisco 49ers, according to sources, and a deal could get done soon. The 49ers now seem motivated to get something done, and the Steelers could use an upgrade at the position to help complement current WR1 George Pickens. Aiyuk is in a contract year and is looking to be traded after not being able to work out a long-term contract extension in the Bay Area. The 26-year-old former 25th overall pick in 2020 out of Arizona State enters the 2024 season on the WR1/2 borderline after his second straight 1,000-yard season with 15 total touchdowns the last two regular seasons. If he were to land in Pittsburgh, he would immediately become the team's WR1 with quarterback Russell Wilson working with him, which would be a downgrade over Brock Purdy.
