PITTSBURGH -- Coming out of Oklahoma and Ohio State in the 2021 NFL Draft, it appeared the Pittsburgh Steelers had a lot of interest in running back Trey Sermon. However, the Steelers took Najee Harris, and the rest is history.

The Pittsburgh Steelers could be looking at the best returning quarterback in the Big 12 at the 2026 NFL draft.

The Pittsburgh Steelers used their sixth-round draft pick to take quarterback Will Howard. The Ohio State product has generated a lot of excitement throughout the fan base.

The Steelers reportedly tried to trade George Pickens during the 2025 NFL Draft and were “laughed at" by other NFL teams.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens wasn't considered an option by multiple teams in the 2022 NFL draft, according to ESPN's Brooke Pryor. "At least one NFL team took him off their draft board after being turned off by his behavior during his predraft visit, according to a high-ranking team executive," Pryor reported Saturday.

Before last month’s draft, speculation had been mounting that the mercurial receiver’s time in Pittsburgh was up.
