Which NFL Teams Made Shocking Gains—and Who Got Left Behind—After Free Agency’s First Big Wave?
The Steelers havenât improved in any other areas either. They’ve replaced 29-year-old cornerback Donte Jackson with 34-year-old cornerback Darius Slay after neither played particularly well in 2024. The Najee Harris-for-Kenneth Gainwell swap in the backfield isnât anything to write home about, either, and Pittsburgh also lost edge rusher Preston Smith and defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi.
Metcalf is a good player, but he alone can’t elevate the Steelers, especially without a quarterback. He finished 74th in burn rate, 65th in burn yards per target and 87th in open rate among 91 receivers with at least 188 routes in 2024.
