I think it’s fair to say that if the Pittsburgh Steelers really had their way, they would not be actively pursuing a trade to send their best player on the roster away, but that is the situation in which they find themselves on the eve of the start of the 2019 new league year, closing in on a trading partner for wide receiver Antonio Brown.
There have been several false starts along the way, apparently most recently a possible scenario in which he would have been traded to the Buffalo Bills, but he reportedly killed that trade himself by essentially letting it be known that he would not report if that were the case.
