Commanders, Texans Aggressively Pursuing Deebo Samuel Trade

Deebo Samuel is known to be on the trade market, and the 49ers are prepared to honor his request to be moved. A pair of serious serious suitors have emerged.

The Commanders and Texans have shown “significant interest” in acquiring Samuel in recent days, Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz reports. He adds that talks have progressed at the Combine, meaning an agreement could soon be in place. While other teams could find themselves in play, Washington and Houston have been the most aggressive to date, per Schultz.

Both teams represent logical suitors for a veteran receiver addition. Washington has 2024 Offensive Rookie of the Year Jayden Daniels attached to his initial NFL contract through at least 2027, giving the team a window of opportunity to make a strong push in terms of acquisitions this offseason. Bringing in a secondary option to complement Terry McLaurin is known to be on the Commanders’ radar.

McLaurin is only on the books for one more year, and none of his 2025 base salary ($15.5MM) is guaranteed. An extension could be on tap as a result, and Washington could stand to make a number of additions on the defensive side of the ball during free agency and the draft this spring. Still, adding a wideout with a stronger track record than the likes of Dyami Brown, Olamide Zaccheaus, Luke McCaffrey or Noah Brown – the latter of whom wants to re-sign – would be feasible.

Just like the Commanders, the Texans have the benefit of an affordable high-end quarterback under team control for years to come in the former of C.J. Stroud. Houston assembled a strong trio atop the WR depth chart last year, acquiring Stefon Diggs via trade from the Bills. Given his presence, along with that of Nico Collins and Tank Dell, expectations were high in 2024. The team’s offense did not preform as hoped, though, and both Diggs and Dell wound up suffering ACL tears.

Diggs is a pending free agent as a result of the restructure he worked out upon arrival in Houston. The team is open to bringing him back, but the injury could complicate his market value. Dell, meanwhile, is in danger of missing most (potentially all) of the 2025 campaign. An experienced pass-catcher would therefore be welcomed, particularly if veteran Robert Woods – who handled a small workload this past campaign – departs in free agency.

One year remains on Samuel’s pact, part of the reason he has long been seen as a trade candidate. That become true to an even larger extent last offseason when the 49ers selected Ricky Pearsall in the first round of the draft and (eventually) worked out a big-ticket extension with Brandon Aiyuk. Samuel, 29, could soon see his San Francisco tenure come to an amicable end.

The former second-rounder earned All-Pro acclaim in 2021, the year in which he best highlighted his unique skillset. Samuel led the NFL in yards per reception (18.2) with a 77-1,405-6 statline. Toward the end of the campaign, he increasingly handled ‘wide back’ duties and racked up eight rushing touchdowns. On the back of that success, he secured a three-year, $71.55MM extension (the end result of a process which included a trade request at one point).

Samuel has missed multiple games each year since signing his pact, though, and only once in that span has he eclipsed 1,000 scrimmage yards. The 49ers could be equipped to move forward with Aiyuk and Pearsall leading the way at the receiver spot, with Jauan Jennings in the fold in a notable complementary role as well. Samuel, if healthy, would nevertheless add a distinct element to any number of offenses.

Schultz’s report also names the Steelers and Broncos as teams which have shown some level of interest. Pittsburgh was linked to many receiver additions last offseason, including extensive trade talks and extension negotiations related to Aiyuk. Denver aims to keep Courtland Sutton in the fold, but the team is not believed to have serious interest in adding a pricey veteran such as Samuel or Cooper Kupp.

A Day 3 pick was recently mentioned as the potential trade price in a Samuel deal. The Commanders are on track to own seven selections, including four on the draft’s final day. The Texans only have six picks at the moment, but they own one in each of the fourth and fifth rounds. It will be interesting to see if an agreement can be reached with either team in the near future.

Which impending free agents should the Steelers bring back?

With the “legal” tampering period for NFL free agency set to begin on March 10th, teams are scrambling to re-sign their impending free agents.

Determining which players the Pittsburgh Steelers re-sign involves analyzing their past performance, future potential, financial value, and the team’s overall needs. How crucial was the player to the team’s success? Does the team have depth at the player’s position, or is it a critical need? Does the player have room for growth, or are they past their prime? Can the team afford to re-sign the player at a reasonable price? And does the player fit the Steelers’ culture and scheme?

Below I break down these considerations for several of Pittsburgh’s soon-to-be free agents and ponder if general manager Omar Khan is likely to bring them back for 2025 or beyond.

Determining which Steelers free agents to re-sign involves analyzing their performance, value, and the team’s overall needs. With a projected $59.7 million in cap space, the Steelers are in a good position to make some moves this offseason. Here’s a breakdown of some potential candidates the Steelers could look to re-sign with their cap room.

Russell Wilson

The Steelers do not have a quarterback under contract for the 2025 season, leaving Wilson and his backup, Justin Fields, as potential options.

The 36-year-old Wilson made 11 starts in 2024, throwing for 2,482 yards, 16 touchdowns and 5 interceptions. He went 6-1 in his first seven games before falling from grace, finishing the year with a five-game losing streak.

Wilson showed he had enough left in the tank at times, but was largely signed last offseason because the Denver Broncos were paying him $38 million owed from his previous contract. Signing anything more than a veteran minimum would’ve saved Denver money, so this year’s situation will be entirely different as Wilson seeks a premium contract.

In the era of $50 million per year passers, Wilson is not in that tier of earners, but could easily command in the range of $35 million per year, on par with the yearly averages of Baker Mayfield ($33 million), Derek Carr and Aaron Rodgers ($37.5 million) or Matt Stafford ($40 million). Currently, the Steelers are betting favorites to land Rodgers and you can get in on the action too using this code at Bet365.

All other NFL quarterbacks are making north of $40 million unless they were signed as backups or are on rookie contracts, making a new deal with Wilson problematic, but perhaps necessary.

Justin Fields

Many fans are clamoring to bring back Justin Fields, who the Steelers traded a sixth-round draft pick to the Chicago Bears last offseason to back Wilson.

With Wilson injured throughout much of the summer, Fields took the first-team reps in training camp, and a majority of snaps throughout the preseason before starting the Steelers’ first six games with the former injured. Fields led the team to a 4-2 record but made way for Wilson, who took the offense to new heights with over 100 yards and 10 points more of offense per game through the latter’s first seven starts.

Fields’ youth is in his favor. (He turns 26 on March 5th.) However, the former seventh overall pick has question marks as to whether he can be a full-time starter.

With few teams having opening this offseason, and fewer teams sniffing around to make a trade with the Bears last year, Fields’ market could be limited. It may allow for the Steelers to make a low, team-friendly offer but Fields’ agents may balk if the player isn’t promised a more prominent role than elsewhere.

Yet, Fields is also a betting favorite to be the Steelers Week 1 starter according to SportyTrader. Team president Art Rooney II, along with Khan, have also stated they would like both quarterbacks to return, but money and opportunity will be key determining factors in whether either wears a black and gold jersey in 2025.

Najee Harris

Harris’ rookie contract expires for the 2025 league year, meaning he can become an unrestricted free agent on March 12th when the business year begins for the NFL. Despite the Steelers declining his fifth-year option on his rookie deal, the team appears eager to bring the soon-to-be 27-year-old back for the future.

With running backs having a resurgence last season, Khan would be wise to bring Harris back – especially if the team’s offensive line play improves. Harris led all Steelers backs with 1,043 yards in 2024 and is the only running back in the league to eclipse 1,000 or more yards on the ground in each of the last four seasons. (Despite playing behind poor line play.)

That totals 4,312 yards and 28 touchdowns rushing with another 1,149 yards and 6 touchdowns receiving for the former team captain.

The only thing that may keep Harris from returning is the running back market bouncing back last year, possibly pricing him out of Pittsburgh.

Jaylen Warren

Warren is scheduled to become a restricted free agent after entering the NFL as an undrafted player. The Steelers could tender him, forcing other teams to either make draft compensation or at least allow Khan to return to the table and match a competing offer.

Warren has been a steady force in the Steelers backfield the last three seasons. One year younger than Harris, Warren battled through injuries and lost some momentum toward overtaking his teammate for the starting role. In three seasons, Warren has 1,674 yards rushing with 6 touchdowns. He’s added another 894 yards as a receiver through 48 games played.

Verdict: Re-sign

James Daniels

A high-profile free agent signing back in 2022, Daniels missed nine games after suffering a season-ending injury against the Colts in Week 4. Still under the age of 28, the to-be seven-year veteran may be on the Steelers’ short list of players to bring back depending on their feelings about last year’s fourth-round rookie selection Mason McCormick.

McCormick, who started at Daniels’ right guard spot, received an early audition after being drafted as the heir apparent, should Daniels enter free agency this offseason.

Daniels initially signed a three-year, $26.5 million contract with the Steelers. He’s certainly affordable by his previous earnings, depending on the team’s other priorities. Daniels could also see his market devalued due to last year’s injury, making a possible one-year “prove it” deal work with Pittsburgh too.

Verdict: Re-sign

Donte Jackson

Acquired in the Diontae Johnson trade with the Carolina Panthers, Jackson started 15 games for the Steelers in 2024 opposite Joey Porter Jr.

Cornerbacks come at a premium in the league, and Jackson’s inconsistent play could see the Steelers look elsewhere for another fit. However, with only Cory Trice Jr. as the only other viable option under contract to start as an outside corner, the to-be 30-year-old Jackson could return.

His deal with the Panthers in 2022 was for three seasons, worth a little over $35 million. The Steelers probably won’t be looking to pay that for an older cornerback.

I also feel Jackson won’t be a day one, or maybe even a week one priority signing for competing offers. Depending on his perceived value from his agents, a deal that pays him around the same $6 million Pittsburgh paid in 2024 would work.

If he seeks a contract like his prior one, or the deal that Cameron Sutton signed with the Detroit Lions in 2023 (3 years, $33 million) then Jackson is all but gone.

Verdict: Move On

Elandon Roberts

Roberts was a nice addition to the Steelers’ defense back in 2023 but is not a three-down backer that the team covets.

With Patrick Queen and Payton Wilson fitting the three-down role, Roberts could find re-signing with the Steelers may limit his role to special teams and sub packages. This is especially true if 2023 free agency classmate Cole Holcomb, who missed all of the 2024 season due to injury, remains on the roster.

Holcomb, another three-down backer, would save the Steelers $6 million in salary if released. That would open up an opportunity for the veteran Roberts to return, but Holcomb being more versatile and two years younger could see negotiations break down to where Roberts looks for one last swan song with another franchise.

Verdict: Move On

Steelers Prefer To Re-Sign Justin Fields Over Russell Wilson?

The Steelers aim to have at least one in-house quarterback on a new deal by the time free agency starts. Further indications have emerged regarding which passer the team prefers on that front.

During an appearance on 93.7 The Fan, ESPN’s Mark Kaboly noted Justin Fields is Pittsburgh’s top target as things stand. He added the team is waiting to see if the former Bears first-rounder is onboard with taking a Steelers contract, something he has expressed interest in this offseason. After spending much of the 2024 campaign as Russell Wilson‘s backup, though, Fields is looking for a path to a starter’s role in Pittsburgh or elsewhere.

Moving on from their Kenny Pickett–Mason Rudolph tandem last offseason, the Steelers signed Wilson and traded for Fields. Both passers were on expiring contracts, and Wilson held onto the top spot on the QB depth chart through training camp before suffering a calf injury. Fields handled starting duties for the first six weeks of the campaign, posting a 4-2 record while posting a 5:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio and adding five rushing scores along the way. Head coach Mike Tomlin elected to install Wilson as the starter once he was healthy, though.

That decision was not unanimous, and since the end of the campaign – which was defined in no small part by underwhelming performances from Wilson in particular and the Steelers’ offense as a whole – Fields has maintained support in the organization. Given the age difference between the passers (Fields will turn 26 next week, Wilson is 36), it would come as little surprise if an investment were to made in the younger option. Pittsburgh is unlikely to keep Fields and Wilson in place for another year.

As a result, a preference for the former would leave the latter on the move via free agency for a second straight offseason. Wilson can indeed be expected to depart, CBS Sports’ Aditi Kinkhabwala noted on her own 93.7 The Fan appearance. The longtime Seahawk has expressed a desire to remain in Pittsburgh, but other options could await him in the event he were to reach free agency. A reunion with Pete Carroll on the Raiders has been floated as a possibility, although they (like the Steelers) have been linked to a Matthew Stafford pursuit.

Pittsburgh is not seen as one of the frontrunners for Stafford, who could of course remain with the Rams via a contract resolution. In that event, both Wilson and Fields could find themselves among the more attractive options on the market once the new league year begins. The Steelers have been in contact with both camps, to no surprise, but a final decision one way or the other could be coming soon. As things stands, Fields is firmly in the lead to receive a deal for at least 2025.

Assessing Where QB Market Stands

This year’s veteran quarterback market consists of at least one Hall of Famer, possibly two. Although Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson are no longer in their primes, each is expected to play in 2025. Kirk Cousins is also lingering as a potential option.

Sam Darnold, however, headlines this free agent class — one that features four of the five QBs chosen in the 2021 first round. Only Justin Fields qualifies as a starter-level option from that quintet, as Mac Jones, Zach Wilson and Trey Lance will not garner attention on that level this year. Daniel Jones also hovers as an interesting option, despite his rough 2023 and ’24 showings.

The trade market, which technically includes Cousins, also has introduced a big name. The Rams continue to dangle Matthew Stafford. Even if this is merely to pinpoint his value as the sides haggle over a new contract, a handful of teams — chiefly the Raiders and Giants — have entered the fray for the former Super Bowl winner. Here is where these markets stand at the Combine:

Making sense of Stafford saga

It has now been five days since it became known the Rams were letting Matthew Stafford speak with other teams. Rather than seeking another reworking, Stafford is gunning for a new contract — and to become the oldest member of the $50MM-AAV club since Rodgers, who was there for a season. No one tied to a long-term deal averaging north of $50MM is older than 31; Stafford will play an age-37 season in 2025.

He is partially at fault for this value discrepancy. After all, Stafford had left money on the table during his initial Rams negotiations in an effort to help the team around him. That led to Stafford signing for four years and $160MM; that matched the Dak Prescott terms — though with less player-friendly language — at the time. It now sits 15th at the position..

The Browns and Steelers were loosely tied to Stafford, but the Giants and Raiders have stepped to the forefront. It would make more sense, were Stafford angling to jump to a roster that could form a contender, for him to consider the AFC North teams. But it is not known if they made serious pushes. As it stands, Giants and Raiders teams respectively coming off 3-14 and 4-13 seasons are in pursuit. The Giants have met with Stafford’s camp and asked about the QB before last year’s deadline, as their Jones plan was imploding. But the Silver and Black have done far more to indicate they are serious.

No matter how it happened, Stafford and new Raiders power broker Tom Brady met in Montana to discuss a potential fit. The Raiders have since come close on contract parameters, though it is not believed trade terms are worked out. Neither the Giants nor Raiders are open to meeting the Rams’ first-rounder asking price, as the teams hold Nos. 3 and 6. A high second-rounder headlining the package, or a potential future first, would make more sense.

Like the 49ers did with Brandon Aiyuk, the Rams still have the final say. They can opt to pay Stafford his modest roster bonus ($4MM) and work out a deal to ensure continuity for a team that has mounted stiff playoff challenges over the past two years. (As of now, however, L.A. is balking at a $50MM-per-year number.) Otherwise, the Rams risk falling backward without a quarterback plan.

Rodgers-Rams link emerges; who else makes sense for 20-year vet?

If the Rams truly go to the edge with Stafford, a report has emerged depicting Rodgers as an interested observer. Rodgers has been tied to wanting to join the Rams and to take Davante Adams with him once again. Adams was mentioned as a potential Rams target before Rodgers was thrown into the mix. It would be interesting to see the Rams try a formula that did not work for the Jets, but Rodgers — albeit at 41 — would be a capable option for far less than Stafford.

Our late-December poll about Rodgers fits did not place the Steelers as a realistic destination. Ditto the Browns. Both teams would benefit from a high-profile placeholder, though the four-time MVP’s current form may not be worth the baggage that also now comes with him.

While the Jets may not have issued an ultimatum regarding Rodgers’ Pat McAfee Show appearances, they are believed to have discussed the matter — as Gang Green’s new regime quickly decided to move on. A Jets team that lacks a surefire route to acquiring a more talented QB in 2025 announcing it would move on from Rodgers so soon is rather telling.

The Giants have not been tied to Rodgers, despite their Stafford pursuit and the team having no QBs contracted presently. If the Titans were to trade down from No. 1 overall, a veteran bridge would be logical as well. Thus far, however, Rodgers connections beyond the Rams have not surfaced.

Steelers to make internal call?

Thus far, the Steelers have been tied to a Wilson-or-Fields decision. The team has entered talks with both players, as the longstanding organizational policy prevents in-season negotiations. Early rumors pointed to Fields having a better chance to come back than Wilson, and the fifth-year veteran is interested in staying — should he receive a legitimate chance to start. Considering the raise the Steelers would need to authorize to either keep Fields off the open market or outbid other curious teams, it would stand to reason any arrangement in which Fields stays in Pittsburgh would come with a good chance to start.

Fields has long believed to have support in the Steelers’ building, dating back to when he closed the gap on Wilson — long positioned as the favorite for the job during the 2024 offseason — leading to a late Mike Tomlin decision. Although Fields did not show much improvement from his Bears form as a passer while filling in for Wilson, the Tomlin call to give the veteran the job back was not unanimous.

After Wilson struggled down the stretch (albeit with a limited receiving corps), suddenly he has not been as closely linked to the Steelers (though, he has repeatedly stated he wants to stay). Wilson, 36, would be competing with Rodgers (and perhaps Cousins) as a high-profile stopgap were the Steelers to work out something with Fields.

The Giants have been loosely tied to Wilson, whom they hosted on a short visit last year. That could be a team to monitor if this Steelers situation breaks Fields’ way, but a Pete Carroll reunion in Vegas — if Stafford and/or the Rams balk about a divorce — has been floated as a possibility.

Will Falcons really keep Cousins as backup?

Terry Fontenot has twice indicated the Falcons are fine keeping Cousins as a backup. He would be the most expensive backup in NFL history, being on a four-year deal worth $180MM. That contract came with $90MM at signing, covering Cousins’ 2025 salary. The Falcons would also owe him $10MM more, in the form of a 2026 roster bonus that vests a year out, if he is still on the roster on Day 5 of the 2025 league year.

The team paying Cousins that bonus would be interesting, but this situation does differ a bit from the Broncos’ decision to cut Wilson, as they the AFC West club was protecting itself against his 2025 base salary becoming guaranteed. The Falcons already have to eat a $27.5MM base, regardless of how they proceed with the 14th-year vet, but they would have a faint hope of trading the Cousins contract. That makes Atlanta’s route interesting, as Fontenot is now 0-for-4 in playoff berths or .500 seasons as a GM. Michael Penix Jr. emerging as a solid starter would minimize the damage from the Cousins miss, but time would seem to be running out on a struggling decision-maker.

The Browns have been linked to Cousins, who played under Kevin Stefanski for two seasons in Minnesota. Considering the Browns’ Deshaun Watson mess extends through 2026, Cousins on a vet-minimum deal — what he would almost certainly be tied to due were the Falcons to cut him, due to offset language in his current contract — would seem rather enticing for Cleveland. Cleveland also has a direct path to either Cameron Ward or Shedeur Sanders, however. Cousins may be leery of finding himself in the same situation as 2024, but after a down season, the soon-to-be 37-year-old’s options will be limited.

The Vikings’ decision

In a more commanding position with Darnold than they were with Cousins in 2024, the Vikings could send the best free agent option to the market or hang onto him as either high-priced J.J. McCarthy insurance (via the franchise tag) or a trade asset (in a tag-and-trade move). Either way, this is a much better spot for Minnesota compared to last year, when its starter left and stuck the team with a $28.5MM dead money bill.

Kwesi Adofo-Mensah has been cagey about his choice, but less than a week remains until the Vikings must decide on a tag. No tag by 3pm CT on March 4 would effectively send Darnold to free agency. This would be a better financial path for the rejuvenated passer, who played for $4.5MM in 2023 and $10MM in 2024. A host of QB-needy teams would pursue Darnold, ensuring plenty of guaranteed money will be available beyond Year 1. The Raiders were connected early, and other teams would be ready to enter the mix. Back in December, the Browns were mentioned as a party monitoring this situation

We have heard the Vikings being a bit leery of applying the tag, at more than $40MM, which could open the door to the team letting Darnold walk and huddling back up with Jones as a much cheaper McCarthy insurance option. Kevin O’Connell has spoken highly of Jones, who could be a Darnold-, Baker Mayfield– or Geno Smith-like rejuvenation candidate under the reigning Coach of the Year. Jones would be far less costly than Darnold. The six-year Giant would be a bridge candidate elsewhere, on a one-year deal, but he would naturally be interested in seeing how the Vikings handle the Darnold matter.

A rumor about McCarthy needing plenty of work included a GM predicting the Vikings tag Darnold to protect themselves; more Darnold tag rumors also surfaced before his struggles in Week 18 and in Round 1. Despite his late-season faceplant, the former No. 3 overall pick belatedly delivered on his USC hype under O’Connell. After Mayfield and Smith proved their resurgences were far from fluky, Darnold will be the unquestioned prize on this year’s market. The Vikings will, then, have the most important say in this year’s free agency.

Throwback Thursday: Steelers offensive linemen at NFL Combine

Steel City Underground takes fans back in time to feature events, special moments, and historical times and players in the world of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Steelers Nation. Join us in our “Steelers Throwback Thursday” series as we revisit these moments.

It’s not very often that the big guys on the offensive line get the love they deserve from fans. Typically, they are not the flashiest players on the field or the guys that fans are desperately attempting to get a jersey of. However, without an effective cast along the offensive front – as we’ve all witnessed at times with the Pittsburgh Steelers – the offense, overall, suffers. On this Throwback Thursday, we look back at three well-known Steelers offensive linemen’s NFL Pro Scouting Combine performances and stats.

Maurkice Pouncey

At the 2010 NFL combine, Pouncey measured in at 6-4 ½, 304 pounds. He ran a 5.29-second 40 and benched 225 pounds 27 times at his campus (University of Florida) workout. The Steelers selected him with the 19th overall pick – the highest a center had been drafted since 1999.

One NFL personnel director said of Pouncey, “If we needed a center, I’d push for him in the Top 10. Everything is good on him. Draft him and you have your center for the next 10 years.” Another said, “If he came out (in 2009), he’d have been the No. 4 center (Behind Alex Mack, Eric Wood and Max Unger). He picked the right time out come out.”

Pouncey would play 11 seasons with the Steelers before retiring in 2020. He was named to nine Pro Bowls, five All-Pro teams, and the NFL’s 2010s All-Decade Team.

Zach Frazier

At the 2024 NFL combine, Frazier (West Virginia) measured 6-3, 313 pounds, with an arm length of 32 1/4 inches. He was drafted by the Steelers at pick No. 51 (second round).

Analyst Lance Zierlein wrote of Frazier as a prospect, “Frazier’s lack of ideal arm length will be a problem for some evaluators and could cause him problems on the next level. Frazier has bulldozer drive strength in his lower half but allows his hands to do too much grabbing and hugging at times… because of his lack of length and recovery ability, he’s going to have issues if he’s forced to protect on an island. Frazier has the potential to be a good backup or eventual starter…”

Frazier took over the starting center duties early during his rookie campaign due to issues Nate Herbig had at the position, and he never looked back. He played in 11 games, missing a short period due to an ankle injury. Frazier was named the Steelers offensive rookie of the year following the 2024 NFL season, making him just the second center in franchise history to do so with Pouncey being the first in 2010.

Frazier was selected to the Pro Football Writers Association (PFWA) NFL All-Rookie Team; the second consecutive Steeler to appear on the list after Joey Porter Jr. the season prior. In addition to this, Frazier was the recipient of the Joe Greene Great Performance Award.

David DeCastro

At the 2012 NFL combine, DeCastro (Stanford) measured 6-5, 316 pounds, with an arm length of 32 3/4 inches. He ran a 5.43 40-yard dash (1.84 10-yard split), recorded a vertical jump of 29.5 inches, broad jump 8 feet – 2 inches, performed the 3-cone drill in 7.3 seconds, 4.56 20-yd shuttle, and did 34 reps on the bench press.

DeCastro was described, in his pre-draft profile, as “a technician on the field and is beautiful to watch for those who respect offensive line play.”

The first-round (pick 24) guard played nine seasons for the Steelers before retiring in 2020. He was a six time Pro Bowl player, was named first-team All Pro twice, and second-team All Pro once.
