The Pittsburgh Steelers did not secure a trade for offensive lineman Quenton Nelson, who was sent from the Indianapolis Colts to the Seattle Seahawks. The Colts received a 2027 third-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick in exchange for Nelson, considered one of the league's best guards. The Steelers' need for an upgraded guard position makes their failure to acquire Nelson particularly notable. As the NFL trade deadline approaches, the Steelers are expected to pursue a move to add a wide receiver.
