The Pittsburgh Steelers are never keen on rebuilding. Most of their moves this offseason, like trading for DK Metcalf and pursuing Aaron Rodgers, are to make them better in 2025. However, trading George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys doesn’t seem to align with that goal. The draft has passed this year, so Pittsburgh’s return is a move for the future. According to NFL insider James Palmer, the Steelers have planned on trading Pickens for a while.
“And by the way, this was decided in Pittsburgh years and years ago,” Palmer said Wednesday on Bleacher Report’s YouTube channel.
