Speculation and trade rumors are beginning to reach an all-time high as the November 5th trade deadline, at 4:00 PM EST, is less than one day away. While the Pittsburgh Steelers have been rumored to pursue any and all available wide receivers, such as Carolina Panthers’ Adam Thielen and New York Jets’ Mike Williams, the most recent and perhaps most exciting rumor involves none other than Seattle Seahawks’ former All-Pro WR D.K. Metcalf.
Fans of the Steel City erupted on social media when Steelers RB Cordarrelle Patterson, who has been actively recruiting several receivers for the team in recent weeks, seemingly began to recruit Metcalf following Seattle’s Week 9 loss.
It was rumored that Seattle could consider moving on from their star WR with a Week 9 defeat, but could Steelers General Manager Omar Khan be the hero of Pittsburgh, and bring this elite talent to the Steel City? Only time will tell, but here are some of the best fan reactions to the speculation and rumors.
I think I speak for all of Steelers Nation when I say D.K Metcalf deserves to be in Pittsburgh
D.K. x George Pickens would be NASTY!!

It’d be amazing, but I’ve been hurt too many times to get my hopes up (but, maybe?) 😅😂 . . . DK’s my top choice prob. I’d settle for Christian Watson though. Packers have like 47 receivers anyway 🤷

I’m going to read too much into D.K. Metcalf being inactive for Sunday’s game against the Rams.
HOWEVER, IF he is traded to the Steelers, an offense with Russell Wilson, Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren, Pickens, Metcalf, Calvin Austin, and Pat Freiermuth would be fun to watch. pic.twitter.com/PKudKjJi5V
