Patience would pay off if the Steelers trade for WR DK Metcalf

It feels like the Pittsburgh Steelers have reached out to most of the teams in the NFL to see if their top wide receiver is available for a trade. Not just one but two San Francisco 49ers wide receivers have been rumored to be coming to the Steelers, but no deal has materialized.

Staying in the NFC West, there’s another name out there who might be worth the wait. According to reporter Benjamin Allbright of KOA in Denver, the Steelers have inquired about the availability of Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf.

According to Allbright, any trade between the Steelers and Seahawks would have to take place after June 1 because of contract issues. Metcalf has two years left on his current deal.

Metcalf is forever linked to the Steelers going back to the 2019 NFL draft. The Seahawks selected him two picks before the Steelers took WR Diontae Johnson. Now Johnson is traded away to the Carolina Panthers, and it would be ironic if Metcalf ended up replacing him.
