Steelers’ Kaleb Johnson linked as trade target for Cowboys
Summary

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson has been identified as a potential trade candidate, specifically for the Dallas Cowboys. Johnson, a former third-round pick from the 2025 NFL Draft, has struggled to establish himself with the Steelers, prompting speculation about his future. With the Cowboys looking to rebuild their running back depth, a trade might be mutually beneficial. The Steelers are expected to receive limited compensation, possibly a sixth- or seventh-round pick, if a deal materializes.
