The Pittsburgh Steelers have taken bold steps to reshape their roster this offseason, making it clear they're determined to return to their winning ways.
With all these aggressive moves from General Manager Omar Khan, the final piece should be acquiring Jauan Jennings.
It completes their offensive transformation.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Jennings wants a new deal or a trade. He’s in the final year of his contract, scheduled to make $7.5 million, and the 49ers might be willing to listen.
That’s perfect news for a GM like Khan, who has proven he’s not afraid to swing for talent when the opportunity is right.
Jennings is far more than just another wide receiver. In fact, he’s the kind of player this Steelers offense needs. Over the past few seasons, when San Francisco needed a big play on third down or a clutch catch in a must-have moment, it was often Jennings who delivered.
His 77 receptions, 975 receiving yards, and six touchdowns last season may not jump off the stat sheet at first glance, but those numbers don't tell the whole story. His timing, toughness, and reliability under pressure make him a unique asset.
Jauan Jennings is the perfect trade tagret for the Pittsburgh Steelers
This is where Pittsburgh could strike gold. With four-time All-Pro Aaron Rodgers now leading the offense—yes, I still have to double-check that’s real—Jennings becomes even more valuable.
Rodgers thrives when surrounded by dependable, smart receivers who can adjust mid-play and win one-on-one battles. Jennings fits that mold perfectly.
Pittsburgh already has young stars and speedsters, but they need a receiver who brings grit, experience, and poise. Someone who can move the chains when it matters most. Jennings is that guy.
His presence would immediately elevate the Steelers’ red-zone ability and give Rodgers another trusted weapon.
Let’s be real—championship windows don’t stay open forever. If the Steelers are serious about making a run in 2025, now’s the time to load up. Khan has been fearless this offseason, and adding Jennings as the final piece is the masterstroke that ties it all together.
Bringing Jennings to Pittsburgh isn't just another move—it would cap a daring offseason, providing the steady, clutch receiver who can help fuel a real championship run. This is the final step that could turn the Steelers from contenders into true threats.
