Steelers Zero In on WR Help Under McCarthy, With Jauan Jennings and Wan'Dale Robinson Touted as Targets

Steelers Wire projects Jennings at three years, $48 million, with Robinson at two years, $32 million.

Overview

  • Multiple reports indicate Mike McCarthy’s offense-first approach has Pittsburgh prioritizing wide receivers in free agency to support Aaron Rodgers.
  • Jauan Jennings is highlighted as an ideal fit for Pittsburgh’s scheme for his contested-catch ability and blocking, with the analysis framing him as a potential WR2 option.
  • Jennings is set to hit unrestricted free agency for the first time after remaining with San Francisco in 2025 despite a trade request when extension talks stalled.
  • Wan'Dale Robinson is profiled as a versatile slot/outside option after a 1,014-yard 2025 season, with the projections positioning him below the $20 million annual tier.
  • Separately, DK Metcalf faces a $100 million lawsuit filed Feb. 5 by Lions fan Ryan Kennedy over a December altercation that led to a two-game suspension, with the filing also naming Chad Johnson and Shannon Sharpe and the plaintiff denying use of racial slurs.
