The Pittsburgh Steelers are no strangers to massive wide receiver trade rumors over the past several years, with speculation surrounding WRs Brandon Aiyuk, Davante Adams, D.K. Metcalf, and Cooper Kupp, just to name a few.
However, one Fox Sports commentator known for his outlandish hot takes, Nick Wright, has boldly declared that the Pittsburgh Steelers should target another position—quarterback.
Speaking with Phoenix Sports, Wright was asked how he would handle the Cardinals-Kyler Murray situation heading into 2025:
“I would call Pittsburgh and be like, ‘You want to give me a couple first-round picks?’ and then we can reboot it [trading Murray to Pittsburgh].”
As if the idea of the Steelers trading away two firsts for a struggling QB wasn’t enough, Wright continued to throw more gas on the fire:
“Kyler’s in a spot where he’s paid like a star, and he’s not quite a star. Pittsburgh would probably do it because they just need someone that’s not a bridge quarterback.”
If the Steelers are searching for something more than a bridge QB, the team should ultimately re-sign Justin Fields—not trade their future away for an unproven, injury-prone quarterback.
