It's April 26th. I'm Cory with the story, and this is NFL News Today, your AI-powered football briefing. The Pittsburgh Steelers might catch heat from the NFL over a draft night mix-up with wide receiver McCoy Lemon in the 2026 draft. According to Mike Florio from Proful Ball Talk, the league could investigate a phone call the Steelers made to Lemon, which blocked the Philadelphia. Eagles from reaching him right when they were on the clock. Florio dropped this report on Saturday, highlighting how that call through a wrench in the Eagles plans to chat with their top target before picking. Former Eagles exec Jake Rosenberg chimed in, saying the Steelers might have broken league rules on contacting draft prospects or their agents. Especially if it messes with the team picking at that exact moment. No formal probe has started yet, but the NFL has eyes on it. Still, things worked out. The Eagles snag lemon anyway, and Pittsburgh landed a solid offensive tackle they liked, high on their board. Word is, the league might just give a light warning and move on, keeping

the focus on fair play without derailing the offseason vibe.
