After a year of trying, the Pittsburgh Steelers<\/a> have finally landed their big-name veteran receiver. The Steelers are sending a 2025 second-round pick to Seattle for two-time Pro Bowl receiver DK Metcalf<\/a>, according to NFL Media<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pittsburgh is signing Metcalf<\/a> to a five-year, $150 million deal that makes Metcalf one of the NFL’s<\/a> highest-paid receivers, NFL Media reports.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In Metcalf, the Steelers are getting a 6-foot-4, 235-pound playmaker who caught 48 touchdowns during his six seasons in Seattle. Still only 27 years old, Metcalf has three 1,000-yard seasons under his belt. Last season, he caught 66 passes for 992 yards and five touchdowns while averaging 15 yards per catch.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Metcalf joins a Pittsburgh team that is still trying to figure out its quarterback situation. It’s safe to assume that the acquisition of Metcalf is a huge selling point when it comes to the Steelers landing a quarterback.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Steelers have said on numerous occasions that their preference would be to re-sign either Justin Fields<\/a> or Russell Wilson<\/a>. If the Steelers go with Wilson, he would be reunited with Metcalf, who was named to his first Pro Bowl with Wilson throwing him the ball.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Regardless of who is at quarterback for the Steelers, the addition of Metcalf is a big move for a team and an offense that has struggled in recent years. It’s also a sign that the Steelers are serious about ending their drought without a playoff win, which currently stands at eight years.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
