Report: Steelers turned down wild trade from Commanders for Terry McLaurin
The Pittsburgh Steelers' wide receiver situation has once again stolen attention heading into the season. The team has DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III and Roman Wilson ready to lead the way, along with tight ends Pat Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith and Darnell Washington. That is a solid group of pass-catchers for Aaron Rodgers to work with, but many fans remain concerned about depth and the inevitable injuries that occur in the NFL. In a league where it is truly next man up, even one significant injury can dramatically affect a team’s offensive production. On Tuesday, new details emerged revealing that the Washington Commanders reportedly made a wild trade offer to Steelers general manager Omar Khan. Insider Andrew Fillipponi reported on 93.7 The Fan that a former NFL assistant GM said the offer included a second-round draft pick and Freiermuth in exchange for star wide receiver Terry McLaurin. "But one thing that did get thrown out at me from a guy who used to be an assistant general manager in the NFL, was the following trade proposal: He thinks Washington floated this to the Steelers, and it got quickly shut down.... He thinks Washington pushed for this deal and the Steelers were the ones who laughed at it." Such a blockbuster move would have dramatically reshaped Pittsburgh’s offense, but the team ultimately decided to pass. The Steelers would have been unwise to accept it. Trading a young tight end and a second-round pick for a talented but 29-year-old wide receiver who would demand top-tier money at the position would have been financially imprudent for the organization. That is likely why the team quickly dismissed the idea of such a wild trade. Still, it is intriguing to see that Pittsburgh may have been presented with a path to acquire McLaurin, even if it would have been a bad deal. Steelers' 2025 season set to draw tons of extra attention The 2025 season is drawing a lot of attention, largely due to the addition of new faces on offense, such as Rodgers and Metcalf. The two are expected to form a lethal duo, but concerns remain about the depth beyond Metcalf. That is why many Steelers fans feel that adding one more offensive weapon would provide greater comfort heading into the season. If the Steelers see a good deal that makes sense and improves their roster, they will take it. For now, they appear to be staying patient. Khan is as aggressive as they come lately. He has his eyes set on bringing a Super Bowl back to Pittsburgh. Whether it can happen in the 2025 season remains to be seen. However, anything is truly possible in the NFL.
Giants have firm stance on possible Jameis Winston trade
The New York Giants have one of the deepest quarterback rooms in the NFL, and there has been speculation that Jameis Winston could be the odd man out when the regular season begins. It does not sound like Winston is going anywhere, however. Russell Wilson is expected to be the Giants' starting quarterback in Week 1. The big question is whether Jaxson Dart or Winston will enter the year as Wilson's primary backup. Dart has played well through two preseason games, and Brian Daboll and his coaching staff have raved about the former Ole Miss star. Some have wondered if the Giants could entertain trade offers for Winston should they decide they view Dart as their No. 2 quarterback. Assistant general manager Brandon Brown was asked about that on Tuesday, and he all but ruled it out. "I appreciate people that are interested, but Jameis is a New York Giant. The way that he's gone about his business from day one, he's made it very intentional of the fact that he wants to be here and he wants to be here for the long haul," Brown said. "Teammates love him. His preparation process, whether it's the off-field things that he does in terms of community relations, Bible studies, things in the locker room, galvanizing the group together — not just the quarterback room, but the offense as a whole. "He's been comic relief, but he's also been a really good example of how to be a pro and handle your business in terms of prehab, rehab and postgame care. So, I'm happy he's here, and he's gonna continue to do those things. He hasn't wavered, and he hasn't been shaken by any distractions at all." Winston signed a two-year, $8M contract with the Giants in free agency this offseason. The deal could climb as high as $16M with incentives, but he would need to play quite a bit to hit those. The Giants value Winston's extensive experience, just as they value Dart's upside. There is a reason they signed both Wilson and Winston and traded up to draft Dart. They believe in all three players, and they likely will not be inclined to trade Winston unless they receive an excellent offer.
MLB sends message by suspending Victor Robles for bat-throwing incident
Major League Baseball announced that Mariners outfielder Víctor Robles has received a 10-game suspension and an undisclosed fine from the league. The suspension will begin as soon as Robles is reinstated from the injured list, though Robles has filed an appeal and the suspension is being held in abeyance until the appeals process is complete. Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reported these details prior to the official announcement. Divish notes that the M’s would have to play a man short during the suspension. Robles has been on the injured list for most of the year. Back in early April, he made a sensational catch in San Francisco but crashed into the sideline netting and dislocated his left shoulder, causing a small fracture in the humeral head of said shoulder. A week ago, he was finally able to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma. During that week, he was hit by pitches multiple times, as shown in this video breakdown from Jomboy Media. Although he was hit five times, only three of them were technically counted as hit-by-pitches, with the other two counting as swings. Regardless, the final incident saw Robles hit by Joey Estes of the Las Vegas Aviators. Of the five times Robles was hit, three of them were out of the hand of Estes, though the final two were counted as swinging strikes. Regardless of how it was scored, Robles was clearly upset and threw his bat toward the pitcher’s mound. It doesn’t appear as though it hit Estes or anyone else, but MLB is understandably taking a firm stance against a player using his bat in this dangerous manner and sending Robles a message. President of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto spoke to members of the media, including Adam Jude of the Seattle Times, noting that the club tentatively planned to reinstate Robles from the IL next week but those plans may change with the suspension. Divish suggests that perhaps the best plan is to reinstate Robles on Sept. 1, so that the M’s can at least play with a 27-man roster, though that would push his reinstatement into the middle of September. Reinstating him earlier would mean playing with a 25-man roster for a while, though that would also mean Robles would be able to be reinstated for more games. It’s also unclear how long the appeals process will take. Sometimes, players appealing a suspension will hang in limbo until their team goes to New York, where the MLB head offices are located. The M’s don’t play in New York again this year, so it’s not clear when the appeal would be scheduled for. Robles being in the minors could also complicate factors. The M’s would surely love for the appeal to drag out into the winter and for Robles to serve his suspension next year, since they are currently in a playoff race, though MLB presumably wouldn’t let it play out like that.
Nine wide receivers the Vikings might find on the trade block
Even though Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell hasn't outright said he's worried about the wide receiver depth, it's become apparent that Minnesota could be targeting a wide receiver on the trade market. That's the word from NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, while NFL insider Dianna Russini says the Vikings, Jets and 49ers are teams monitoring the trade market for wide receivers. At this point of the season, players most likely to be traded are those in contract standoffs and players who are cut candidates ahead of the Aug. 26 53-man roster deadline. Terry McLaurin, Washington Commanders The 30-year-old is in a contract standoff entering the final year of his deal, which carries a $25.5 million cap hit. The Athletic's Nicki Jhabvala reported Wednesday that McLaurin may be seeking more than the $33 million per year D.K. Metcalf got from the Steelers. If that's the case, the Vikings are likely a poor suitor considering Jordan Addison will be due for a contract extension soon and they're already paying Justin Jefferson big money.

He's now expected to miss some time, which means the idea of Minnesota trading for him carries very little weight. Romeo Doubs and Mecole Hardman, Green Bay Packers Doubs had 46 catches for 601 yards and four touchdowns despite missing four games with a concussion last season. Seeing the Packers cut him would be a bit shocking, but his name is plastered all over the rumor mill. The caveat here is that the Packers play in the NFC North, so why would they strengthen Minnesota's roster when they could trade him elsewhere? Assuming Jayden Reed, Matthew Golden, Savion Williams, Dontayvion Wicks and Dobbs make the team, that leaves one possible final receiver spot up for grabs — and it's likely between Hardman and Malik Heath. Hardman would be a nice weapon at wide receiver to fill depth in Minnesota, and he'd also work in as the No. 1 punt returner. Kendrick Bourne and Ja'Lynn Polk, New England Patriots The Patriots have a solid group developing at wide receiver with Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins and DeMario Douglas, while Kyle Williams and Efton Chism III also seem likely to make the team. That leaves Bourne, who signed a three-year, $19.5 million contract last year, on the cut line. So too could be Polk, whom the Pats drafted in the second round last year. Bourne has been more than serviceable in his eight-year career, averaging 45 receptions for 569 yards and three touchdowns per season. Polk had just 12 catches for 87 yards and two touchdowns as a rookie, and he just returned to practice this week after suffering a shoulder injury in New England's first preseason game. Curtis Samuel, Buffalo Bills Jay Skurski of the Buffalo News believes the Bills will trade Samuel. The 29-year-old has been solid in his his career (averaging 56 catches for 589 yards and four touchdowns per season) but he had only 31 catches for 251 yards and one touchdown last season. He also carries cap hits of $9 million this season and $9.7 million next season, according to Over The Cap. Minnesota has more than $26 million in cap space, per Over The Cap, but do they want to take on a contract beyond this season? If Buffalo sweetens the pot with a draft pick, maybe it's worth it. That's precisely what Skurski thinks the Bills will need to do in order to find a trade partner. “We’re counting on general manager Brandon Beane to work a little magic here by trading Samuel,” Skurski says. “There doesn’t figure to be a robust market for a wide receiver coming off a down season who hasn’t been able to practice much this summer, so perhaps Beane will have to attach a draft-pick sweetener – think something like Samuel and a fifth-round pick in exchange for a sixth-round pick – but freeing up $7.34 million against the cap would be worth it.” Trey Palmer, Tampa Bay Buccaneers The speedy receiver with return skills seemed like a logical trade candidate until the Buccaneers lost Jalen McMillan to a neck injury. That may have opened the door for Palmer to secure a spot on the 53-man roster. Without him, Tampa Bay would be starting the season with Chris Godwin on the PUP list, setting the stage for a top three of Mike Evans, Emeka Egbuka and Tez Johnson. Palmer now seems like a surefire depth receiver in Tampa. Skyy Moore, Kansas City Chiefs Moore is a cut candidate in Kansas City. Last week, Moore dropped two passes and muffed a kickoff and then made up for his mistakes with an 88-yard punt return for a touchdown. As a receiver, the 2022 second-round pick totaled 43 catches for 494 yards and one touchdown through his first two seasons, and then went without a catch in 2025 as a core muscle injury wiped out the majority of his season.
