Rumors Still Swirling Around Potential T.J. Watt Trade
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that despite the Pittsburgh Steelers' unwillingness to trade superstar pass rusher T.J. Watt, the 30-year-old remains unhappy with his contract situation. Furthermore, Schefter notes that some sources believe "outside team interest is likely to increase given today's trade." The Steelers and Dolphins stole headlines on the first day of NBA free agency when the two teams agreed to a blockbuster deal involving defensive backs Jalen Ramsey and Minkah Fitzpatrick. However, Pittsburgh has made it clear they want Watt to retire in the Steel City. It'd likely take a massive offering even to pique the organization's interest, and while it's possible, there has been no indication that the Steelers will forfeit his rights. Watt is in the final season of a four-year, $112 million extension he signed back in 2021.
Tyler Boyd Interested in Playing for Steelers
Free-agent wide receiver Tyler Boyd said he thinks he still has "a few more years" left in the NFL and would "absolutely" be interested in playing for the Pittsburgh Steelers after spending the first eight years of his NFL career with the Cincinnati Bengals. Boyd is a Pennsylvania native and University of Pittsburgh alumni. In 2024 with the Tennessee Titans, he caught 39 of 57 targets for only 390 yards and no touchdowns in 16 games (eight starts). The 30-year-old former second-rounder could be a nice fit for Pittsburgh, a team that has question marks beyond WR1 DK Metcalf after trading George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys in the offseason. Boyd's 390 receiving yards last year were his lowest total since his sophomore campaign in 2017, and it was the first time in nine seasons he was held out of the end zone. There's no guarantee he'd have a sizeable role if he were to join the Steelers.

Dolphins Now Looking to Acquire a Tight End
After the Miami Dolphins traded tight end Jonnu Smith and cornerback Jalen Ramsey to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday in exchange for safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, the team is now in conversations with multiple team about acquiring a tight end, sources tell NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. With Smith now in Pittsburgh, Pharaoh Brown, Julian Hill and Tanner Conner are Miami's top options at the tight end position, so it's not a surprise they are now looking for an upgrade. At the moment, the trade of Smith is good news for receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, who both had down seasons in 2024. However, that could change, depending on who the Dolphins bring in at tight end. The most plausible trade options could be the Ravens' Mark Andrews or the Raiders' Michael Mayer.
L'Jarius Sneed Says he's Healthy
Tennessee Titans cornerback L'Jarius Sneed (quadriceps) said at his recent football camp that he's "ready to get back on the field" after missing the team's final 12 games in 2024 with a quadriceps injury. The 28-year-old defensive back didn't take part in Tennessee's minicamp in the middle of June but should be ready to go at some point in training camp this summer. Sneed signed a four-year, $76.4 million deal with the Titans before last season but played in only five games in his first year with the team due to his quad injury, recording 23 tackles (19 solo). He had established himself as one of the better corners in the league in his first four NFL seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs and had a 100-tackle campaign with 3.5 sacks in 2022. If Sneed can rebound and stay healthy all year in 2025, Tennessee's secondary could be in good hands.
