Steelers WR George Pickens to miss Week 15

Adam Schefter

Dec 13, 2024 · 4:23 PM EST

Steelers ruled out wide receiver George Pickens for Sunday’s game against the Eagles due to his hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact:

We really can't trust any of the Pittsburgh WR options here in the first round of the playoffs, particularly against the Eagles' defense. Russell Wilson can also comfortably be faded in all formats.

Jets trade WR Mike Williams to Steelers

According to multiple reports, they have acquired Mike Williams in a deal with the Jets. They will send a 2025 fifth-round pick to the AFC East club.

Related players: George Pickens, Calvin Austin III, Pat Freiermuth

Fantasy Impact:

Williams tore his ACL while playing for the Chargers in 2023 and signed a one-year deal with the Jets this offseason. He had 12 catches for 166 yards in the first nine weeks of the season, but his most notable moment with the team came when quarterback Aaron Rodgers said Williams ran the wrong route on a pass that was intercepted to seal a loss to the Bills in Week 6, the story went on to say. It remains to be seen what Williams can be with the Steelers at this point. If all goes right, Williams' upside could be a WR2 role once he's up to speed, but even then he's likely a third option behind Pickens and Freiermuth.

Steelers QB Russell Wilson looks set to start Week 7

Sources: The Steelers plan to give Russell Wilson first-team reps in practice this week, putting him in line to make his season debut.

Fantasy Impact:

Russ will get the start against the Jets on Sunday night it looks like. Pittsburgh is 4-2 with Fields, but with Wilson’s calf now fully healed it looks like the team is going to make a change. This could mean a better news for the Pittsburgh WRs as Wilson should throw the ball more vs. Fields escaping the pocket and running.

Report: 49ers, Steelers have Brandon Aiyuk deal in place

Pro Football Talk

Aug 13, 2024 · 2:44 PM EDT

The standoff between receiver Brandon Aiyuk and the 49ers may be coming to a conclusion soon.

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, the 49ers and Steelers have a deal for a potential Aiyuk trade in place. The Steelers also are “in a good place” with Aiyuk on a new contract. If the 49ers give their final sign-off, the deal will be done.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say San Francisco also has an offer out to Aiyuk on a long-term deal for him to remain with the club that, but to this point, Aiyuk has not accepted. The story added it’s currently unclear what Pittsburgh would send back to San Francisco in exchange for Aiyuk, but it would likely be a significant package. If the deal goes through, the Niners would be looking at Pearsall, Jenning and Cowing to move up the depth chart, while in Pittsburgh, Aiyuk and Pickens form the 1-2 punch.
