Steelers ‘Were Keen’ On Acquiring Veteran WR In Offseason, According To Omar Khan

Entering the 2023 offseason, the Pittsburgh Steelers had a number of holes on the roster to address.

One of the more underrated on the roster involved the third receiver spot behind Diontae Johnson and George Pickens. It might have taken longer to address than the Steelers front office of GM Omar Khan and assistant GM Andy Weidl might have liked, but they certainly got their man, acquiring Allen Robinson in a seventh-round pick swap with the Los Angeles Rams.

According to Khan, who spoke with reporters Monday with head coach Mike Tomlin in the pre-draft press conference, the Steelers entered the offseason “keen” on acquiring a veteran receiver to shore up depth in the Steel City.
