Could Steelers sign RB J.D. McKissic?

Just weeks before the start of the season, the free agent pool is still filled with proven talent at the running back position.

Among the top players include Ezekiel Elliott, Dalvin Cook and Leonard Fournette, but there is a name that’s been flying under the radar as a potential bargain signing.

J.D. McKissic was cut earlier in the offseason by the Washington Commanders and is looking for a new home. Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox suggested the Steelers as a potential destination.

“Adding McKissic could help preserve Harris, while his experience and receiving ability could help aid the development of Pickett,” Knox writes.
