Steelers Eye Star Wide Receiver of Commanders in Potential Blockbuster Deal

With contract talks stalling in Washington, star wide receiver Terry McLaurin has emerged as a top trade target for the Pittsburgh Steelers—raising hopes of a new “big three” with DK Metcalf and Aaron Rodgers for the 2025 season.

Multiple reports confirm that the Steelers are exploring a trade for Washington Commanders’ WR Terry McLaurin. Discontented by a lack of progress in his contract negotiations, McLaurin could be available, and Pittsburgh is positioning itself as a leading suitor. If the deal is completed, McLaurin would join DK Metcalf and newly-acquired quarterback Aaron Rodgers, forming one of the league’s most explosive receiving trios.

Terry McLaurin is known for his speed, route-running, and consistency—even while playing with multiple quarterbacks in Washington. Adding him would instantly upgrade Pittsburgh’s passing attack and take pressure off DK Metcalf and the ground game.

For Aaron Rodgers, having McLaurin and Metcalf as primary targets could rejuvenate his final NFL campaign and give Pittsburgh a top-5 offense on paper.

NFL Insider: “If the Steelers land McLaurin, it immediately transforms their passing game. With Rodgers pulling the strings, this group could be unstoppable.”

Terry McLaurin has been a bright spot for the Commanders since entering the league, surpassing 1,000 receiving yards in multiple seasons. His ability to stretch the field and work the intermediate routes would perfectly complement Metcalf’s physical, vertical style.

With the regular season fast approaching, the Steelers are pushing all their chips in for a championship. Will Pittsburgh pull off another stunning move and land Terry McLaurin, or will negotiations stall once again?
