The Pittsburgh Steelers are gaining attention as a potential landing spot for quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who is set to visit the team ahead of the NFL draft. This comes as the Steelers continue to wait on Aaron Rodgers’ decision and have also invited Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart to a top-30 visit.
ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter suggests that the Steelers are a team to watch for Sanders, especially if the New Orleans Saints don’t take him at No. 9 overall. According to Schefter, Sanders’ draft trajectory was once considered unlikely, but he now seems like a viable option for teams that may not have been expected to select quarterbacks in recent years.
If Sanders falls past the Saints, the Indianapolis Colts are likely his next destination, assuming no other team trades up to take him earlier. If the Steelers decide to pass on Sanders, it will be due to their assessment of whether he can serve as a long-term solution.
