Omar Khan, general manager of the Pittsburgh Steelers, denied reports suggesting that the team is thinking about 2026 and trying to accumulate draft capital. For the organization, the goal is to win now despite all the uncertainty surrounding the quarterback position due to Aaron Rodgers.

ā€œWe’re always trying to get good players regardless of what position it’s at and at any point in the year. We’re going to get good players. We’re chasing a championship and every decision we make is based on trying to win a championship. Not only in the future, but this year.ā€

Also, Khan has faced heavy criticism for trading George Pickens to the Cowboys when the Steelers don’t have much depth at the wide receiver position. Despite that, the general manager expressed confidence in players like Calvin Austin III and Robert Woods.

Will Steelers sign Aaron Rodgers soon?

Omar Khan stated that the Steelers will be aggressive and that there is still time to sign players. All of this comes as a consequence of Aaron Rodgers and the delay in announcing his final decision, as well as the need to find a replacement for Pickens.

ā€œWe’re focused on trying to win a championship this year. I know there’s a lot of questions about different things, but there’s a lot of time between now and the start of the season. Rest assured, we’re trying to win a championship this year.ā€
