Pittsburgh Steelers Sign 3-Time Pro Bowl Offensive Lineman

Peat was a first-round pick by the New Orleans Saints in the 2015 NFL Draft. He quickly earned the starting left guard job in New Orleans and within a few years emerges as one of the league's best.

Between 2018 and 2020, Peat was selected to three straight Pro Bowls despite missing 12 games spread over the three seasons. He signed a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders in the 2024 offseason and played in 15 games for the team last season.

It remains to be seen how much high level football peat still has in him, but if he has any, he can be quite a boost for the team.

Woodside has bounced around the league since 2018. He has completed four of seven passes for 34 yards and an interception during his career.

Reaction

Fans aren't all that convinced that signing Peat will do much help for the Steelers. Many seem to believe that Aaron Rodgers is just too old and washed-up to lead the team to the promised land:

"Steelers still gonna be trash. Rodgers is washed," one user replied.

"That’s really gonna be the difference maker for Pittsburgh right here," another mocked.

"Oh good. An old injury prone guard and a career backup QB," a third wrote.

"Steelers are gonna be disappointed in Rodgers."

Not every move is the difference between a Super Bowl and the first-overall draft pick though.

Can the signing of Peat be a boon to the Steelers?
