The Pittsburgh Steelers still have a few holes that can be filled with cheap, veteran free agents. Wide receiver, quarterback, and defensive tackle are all positions that, if the 2025 regular season began today, could be the Steelers’ undoing. Here are three veterans the Steel City should target as soon as possible.
The arrival of WR DK Metcalf was an incredible move pulled off by the Pittsburgh Steelers to revamp their wide receiver room—but it wasn’t enough to instill confidence in the offense. With star WR George Pickens potentially on the trade block, the Black and Gold could use the veteran presence of former Bills WR Amari Cooper. Cooper, at 30 years old, could still have some fantastic football left in the tank—his six 1,000-yard receiving seasons speak for themselves.
As Aaron Rodgers continues to take the Steel City faithful on more twists and turns every day, the Pittsburgh Steelers may have no choice but to roll with QB Mason Rudolph as the starting quarterback for the 2025 season. With Russell Wilson likely out the door, and Rodgers potentially shooting himself in the foot with this waiting game, former Ravens QB Joe Flacco may be the perfect backup for Rudolph. Many stomachs may turn at the thought of Flacco donning the Black and Gold, but it has to be better than rolling out QB Skylar Thompson behind Rudolph in 2025—right?
The recent signings and re-signings of DTs Isaiahh Loudermilk, Daniel Ekuale, and Esezi Otomewo were fantastic for depth—but the quality of the 2025 defensive line remains uncertain. Signing the 38-year-old, six-time Pro Bowler and former Jaguars All-Pro DT Calais Campbell would not only give the Pittsburgh Steelers a more solid defensive lineman for the 2025 season—it also gives the team a short-term backup plan if the NFL Draft doesn’t go their way.
