PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers haven’t been afraid to be aggressive this offseason. To this point, they’ve traded wide receiver Diontae Johnson and quarterback Kenny Pickett, acquired Justin Fields from the Chicago Bears and signed Russell Wilson, Patrick Queen and DeShon Elliott – all making major headlines due to the height of the deals.
Maybe they aren’t done. Right now, rumors are swirling about the Steelers looking at wide receivers, with Brandon Aiyuk leading the news cycle. But if San Francisco and Pittsburgh can’t work out a deal, the Steelers may look elsewhere to acquire more resources. It won’t be for a wide receiver, but maybe a defensive back makes sense for this team.
Two years ago, the Bengals used their first-round pick on defensive back Dax Hill. Since then, he’s been demoted, not working out at the safety position, forcing the team to sign Geno Stone and Vonn Bell. Cincinnati informed him they would look elsewhere, and now, the question is where he’ll play in 2024.
