Steelers fans react to latest All-Pro WR trade rumor
After missing out on three heartbreaking wide receiver trades in 2024 so far, the fourth time's a charm, right?
Pittsburgh Steelers General Manager Omar Khan and the team's front office certainly hope so, as 31-year-old All-Pro WR Cooper Kupp remains a strong trade target for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Fans who were frustrated by the Steelers missing out on receivers Brandon Aiyuk, Davante Adams, and DeAndre Hopkins could be in for a pleasant surprise if Khan can work out a deal with the Los Angeles Rams to send the 2021 Triple Crown receiver to the 'Steel City.'
Acquiring Kupp would likely take no more than a second-round draft pick, and the Rams have agreed to take on a hefty portion of his guaranteed salary. This seems like the perfect trade Pittsburgh could use to keep pace with their AFC North rivals, the Baltimore Ravens, in the race to the top of the division. Here are some of the best fan reactions to the 'Cooper Kupp to Pittsburgh' rumors:
Idc anymore. Idc how much he costs. Idc what picks it takes to trade. Idc if he plays the slot. Outside. Inside. I’m not worried about the injury concerns.

Mike Tomlin last time the Steelers played the Rams on Cooper Kupp:
“It’s very difficult to minimize a player of his caliber…people put two people on LeBron in basketball, but he’s still LeBron. And so that’s what elite athletes do."
Yeah, I think he likes him.— Ross McCorkle (@Ross_McCorkle) October 23, 2024
