The Pittsburgh Steelers have made a significant move in acquiring veteran wide receiver Robert Woods on a one-year, $2 million deal. Woods, who had a quiet season with the Houston Texans, will add experience to a receiving corps that already features George Pickens and the recently acquired DK Metcalf. As Woods enters his 13th NFL season, he will not be the primary target but will provide a steady presence while the team navigates uncertainty at quarterback, potentially with the addition of Aaron Rodgers.

With the Steelers drafting quarterback Will Howard from Ohio State, the team is orchestrating a new offensive dynamic. Howard, who threw for over 4,000 yards and 35 touchdowns last season, aims to integrate into the team alongside veterans like Mason Rudolph while Woods supports the transition. Coach Mike Tomlin hints at productive discussions with Rodgers, leaving the future quarterback situation in flux but optimistic about revitalizing the offense with these strategic additions.
