Terrell's Hamstring Injury: Steelers' Draft Opportunity?

About this episode

Clemson cornerback Avieon Terrell, a top NFL Draft prospect, may slip in the draft due to a hamstring injury. Despite his potential as a first-round pick, teams often hesitate on injured players. This could be a boon for the Pittsburgh Steelers, who need cornerback help and could snag a potential starter in the second round. The cornerback class is deep this year, with nine or ten players expected in the first sixty-four picks. If Terrell falls, it could be a steal for the Steelers, allowing them to build their secondary without overpaying early.

On March 30th, Pittsburgh Steelers fans keep your eyes on Clemson Cornerback Avion Terrell for the 2026 NFL Draft. This top prospect aggravated his hamstring injury during his private pro-day workout, marking another setback in his pre-draft process. He's been projected as a first-round pick, but now concerns could push him down the board. Earlier this week, Adam Schefter reported the injury happened on his very first run at Clemson's pro-day back on March 30th. Terrell has dealt with hamstring issues before, and teams often hesitate on players with recent injuries, even talented ones like him. That slide could be a huge win for the Steelers who need Cornerback help. Instead of reaching in the first round, they might snag a potential starter in the second. It's like what happened with other prospects who dropped over durability worries, turning risks into steels. The Cornerback class this year is stacked deep, with 9 or 10 guys expected in the first 64 picks. Mod Drafts had Terrell slotted between 17th and 32nd overall, right outside some top 20 lists at number 23. If he

falls, it might just be the Steelers' lucky break, letting them build that secondary without overpaying early. Draft boards shift fast, so stay tuned as we head into April. This has been NFL News today, powered by AI.
