Roman Wilson Injury Impacts Steelers’ Aiyuk Trade Plans Before Draft
The Pittsburgh Steelers focused on improving their wide receiver position ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft, ultimately selecting Michigan's Roman Wilson in the third round. Wilson's promising progress in training camp was interrupted by a sprained ankle suffered on July 30, which delayed his development and possibly influenced the team's approach toward acquiring Brandon Aiyuk. Although Wilson showcased his potential by leading the team in receiving during the initial practices, his injury could lead him to start the season on injured reserve. The Steelers' trade pursuit of Aiyuk has stagnated, as GM Omar Khan waits for a response from the 49ers after making a solid offer. The team's excitement for Wilson's capabilities remains, hoping he can swiftly return to practice and contribute significantly in 2024.
