Starkey & Mueller

The Steelers have released Robert Woods, who never suited up in a regular season game with the team. A few friends of Aaron Rodgers got cut today and could be on their way to Pittsburgh. Adam Schefter reported today that the Raiders do not intend on trading Jakobi Meyers, despite the player asking for that yesterday. There is another receiver who may be available that is coming off a pretty good season.

Kenny Pickett was traded, again. It’s now his 4th team in as many years. But it’s a worse look for Kevin Colbert, whose final draft looks like an absolute disaster. The Steelers also cut DeMarvin Leal, who came from the same draft class, which now means their first 3 picks from 2022 are gone, with only Connor Heyward and Calvin Austin still on the roster. Some calls on the final few drafts of the Kevin Colbert era. Happy 60th, Joe Starkey! The Penguins also rebooted their Hall of Fame, but a notable writer was left off their voter list. More calls on the Steelers.
