The Pittsburgh Steelers are actively seeking to bolster their wide receiver corps after failing to acquire Brandon Aiyuk, eyeing potential trades for Treylon Burks and Darius Slayton. They are also considering signing cornerback Xavien Howard to improve their secondary depth. Additionally, the Steelers re-signed former wide receiver Quez Watkins to their practice squad and showed interest in bringing back former wide receiver Miles Boykin, recently released by the Giants. The team also added safety Ayo Oyelola to their practice squad as part of the International Player Pathway program. Meanwhile, the Atlanta Falcons signed veteran quarterback Nathan Peterman to their practice squad ahead of their game against the Steelers.
