Pittsburgh seemingly misses out on another All-Pro WR trade
From excitment to disappointment, what a difference a day makes. Head Coach Sean McVay crushed the hearts of Pittsburgh Steelers fans in the post-game press conference following Thursday Night Football's matchup between the Minnesota Vikings and Los Angeles Rams.
The most recent WR trade target on the Steelers' radar was none other than 31-year-old All-Pro Cooper Kupp of the Rams. The superstar wideout had a solid outing on Thursday Night Football, and McVay took notice. While speaking to the media, the Rams head coach alluded to the trade rumors and practically dashed any hopes of the 'Steel City' acquiring the talented receiver.
Are fans placing too much pressure on the shoulders of General Manager Omar Khan and the Steelers' front office? Possibly, however, Khan should never have traded away the number one receiver in Pittsburgh, Diontae Johnson, without a proper backup plan in place.
Steelers' RB Cordarrelle Patterson may end up being the last line of defense for recruiting a star player to Pittsburgh, and WR Mike Williams of the New York Jets could fit that bill.
