Steelers Reporter Says Free Agent WR Tyler Boyd ‘Wants To Come Home’ To Pittsburgh

Following the surprise trade of veteran wide receiver Diontae Johnson, the Pittsburgh Steelers have a significant hole at the position.

Only George Pickens and Calvin Austin III remain as receivers with in-game experience as Johnson’s trade came just a few days after Allen Robinson II was released.

That’s quite concerning.

An answer might be found at the position in veteran receiver Tyler Boyd.

According to 93.7 The Fan’s sports director and Steelers reporter Jeff Hathhorn, Boyd — who has played the last eight seasons with the AFC North rival Cincinnati Bengals — wants to “come home” to Pittsburgh, where he was born and raised.
