NFL free agency is almost upon us, the Pittsburgh Steelers have been quiet thus far.
Sure, Mike McCarthy and Omar Khan seem set on dropping Will Howard’s name whenever the opportunity arises, and trampling down any Pat Freiermuth trade rumors, but the Steelers have not made any roster moves aside from signing players to “futures” contracts.

All of which promises to make the next 2-3 weeks interesting because the Steelers have one of the largest free agent classes in recent memory, ample salary cap space and an estimated 12 picks in the 2026 NFL Draft.
One way or another, things look set to get busy in the Steel City very, very soon.
