A little under two full years into his role as the Pittsburgh Steelers’ GM, Omar Khan is becoming a fan favorite—and media favorite—for his aggressiveness in reshaping the team’s roster, aiming to bring in not only serviceable players but also competition in key areas of need.
This offseason has been a prime example of that, with him reshaping the quarterback room, swinging big in free agency on linebacker Patrick Queen, and being aggressive in the trade market, landing Justin Fields and Donte Jackson.
As the Steelers’ GM, he is fully leaning into his “Khan Artist” nickname. But even then, he doesn’t consider himself aggressive.
