Mike Tomlin confirms Steelers are exploring trades ahead of NFL deadline

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin confirmed the team is actively involved in trade discussions ahead of the NFL deadline. The Steelers, currently leading the AFC North with a 6-2 record, are looking to strengthen their wide receiver group. Previously, the Steelers were in talks to acquire Christian Kirk from the Jacksonville Jaguars, but those plans fell through due to Kirk's season-ending injury. The team is now considering other options, including Adam Thielen from the Carolina Panthers and Jakobi Meyers from the Las Vegas Raiders. The trade deadline is set for Tuesday, and the Steelers have a few hours left to make a move. Their offense has shown inconsistency, prompting the search for additional playmakers.
