The Pittsburgh Steelers have already made a number of moves this offseason that involve wide receivers.
Whether it was trading with the Seattle Seahawks to acquire DK Metcalf, or trading away their star receiver, George Pickens, to the Dallas Cowboys. Pittsburgh has been experimenting with their wideouts.
Now, per a report by Adam Crowley of 93.7 The Fan, the Steelers could be looking in the trad market for another star receiver to go alongside Metcalf. Specifically, New Orlenas Saints star Chris Olive.
"The Steelers are interested in the 24-year-old, but sources describe that call as a due diligence call," Nick Farabaugh of PennLive wrote on Friday talking about whether or not the deal could happen. "In addition, sources tell PennLive that New Orleans does not seem interested in trading Olave. As of this morning, nothing is close to a trade or imminent."
The Steelers' current WR2 on the depth chat is listed as Robert Woods. Given the fact that he is 33 years old, it could be in the team's best interests to at least look for some depth at the position.
For someone who is just 24 years old, Olave has already shown he is a star in this league. He finished his first two seasons with over 1,000 yards, but his second concussion in 2024 kept him out for most of the season.
The Saints might not be showing much interest in trading the young weapon at the moment, but those injury concerns could be something that could lead them to. If they do end up being interested, it could be something for the Steelers to keep tabs on.
