Is the standout receiver headed to Pittsburgh?

Since the start of the new league season, the Pittsburgh Steelers have been scheming and haggling.

They traded for Diontae Johnson and Kenny Pickett while acquiring players like Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, and Patrick Queen.

And what do you know? They might not be completed.

After over a year without posting on X, standout receiver Brandon Aiyuk of the San Francisco 49ers took to social media and joked that fans had noticed they looked alike.

The host of Steelers Afternoon Drive on Steelers Now, Zachary Smith, shared a picture of Tomlin and Aiyuk side by side on X that quickly garnered popularity and probably attracted the attention of the standout receiver.

Following the aforementioned Johnson trade, the Steelers are in need of a receiver, and Aiyuk would be a great addition. One of the best receivers in the NFL, he helped the 49ers win their second Super Bowl in five years by averaging almost eighteen yards per reception for over 1,300 yards and seven touchdowns.

The Steelers and former Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams are scheduled to meet on Thursday, but they should move quickly to complete a deal for Aiyuk.
