The Pittsburgh Steelers made a major offseason trade to acquire star wide receiver DK Metcalf from the Seattle Seahawks. Following that move, they were expected to have one of the most lethal wide receiver duos in the NFL with Metcalf and George Pickens.

Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Omar Khan says trading wide receiver George Pickens was the right thing for both sides.

Khan specifically mentioned that he feels good about having DK Metcalf (who was acquired via trade earlier this offseason in a move that seemingly heralded Pickens' departure), Calvin Austin III and Roman Wilson, via the team's official website .
