Lost amidst the drama of the Pittsburgh Steelers‘ signing of quarterback Aaron Rodgers is that the Steelers were actively looking for another offensive playmaker, and this hasn’t changed. According to NFL reporter Ian Rapoport, the Steelers have made a call to the Atlanta Falcons on the availability of tight end Kyle Pitts. Rapoport talked about it on Good Morning Football.
“Kyle Pitts, there was a phone call there,” Rapoport said. “The Steelers are in the market, it seems, for at least one more playmaker.”
The Steelers placed tight end Donald Parham on IR less than a week ago after suffering a torn Achilles. Pitts is the second tight end the Steelers have been linked to in a trade. It was also reported that the Steelers reached out to the Miami Dolphins about the availability of Jonnu Smith.
