Calvin Austin's Future Uncertain with Steelers

0:00It's March 5th for the NFL. Let's get into it. Follow and subscribe for more team news every day. The Pittsburgh Steelers have a thin wide receiver group and need to add talent this off-season. One of their own, Calvin Austin III, is hitting free agency for the first time. The speedy receiver could leave the team looking for even more help at the position. Earlier this week, Rosenhaus Sports announced they are now representing Austin as he explores his options. This switch in agents came right before the legal tampering period starts on March 9th. That timing has fans and analysts wondering about his future in Pittsburgh. The relationship feels uncertain, and Austin might want a fresh start elsewhere after building a role here. Austin was the 138th overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft. He missed his rookie year with a foot injury, but has put up 1,100 receiving yards, and 8 touchdowns over 3 seasons. Plus, special teams work. His market value sits around $4.9 million per year.

1:00While the Steelers could bring him back, they will likely shop for receivers no matter what happens next. This story is made possible by our sponsor. See the episode description. Do not just listen to podcasts. Get lost in them comfortably, S-O-L-I. S-O-L-L-L.
