The Pittsburgh Steelers have dealt a couple of notable names during the 2024 NFL offseason.
Kenny Pickett and Diontae Johnson were both traded away since the start of the new league year.
Johnson’s contract situation had the potential to become an issue for the team as his deal was set to expire after the 2024 season.
Meanwhile, Pickett wasn’t taking his benching well after the team traded for Russell Wilson.
Rather than dealing with any potential issues that might arise, the team decided to just move on from both players.
Steelers insider thinks George Pickens should take note of the moves the team has made this offseason.
During a March 19 fan chat, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Ray Fittipaldo was asked if the Steelers would trade Pickens if he requested one after dealing Johnson and Pickett.
Fittipaldo said the moves should have Pickens on notice about needing to change his behavior if he wants to stick around in Pittsburgh..
