In episode 53 of Ben Roethlisberger’s podcast, Footbahlin With Ben Roethlisberger, the former Steelers legend and quarterback discussed how great the team could become if they were to acquire wide receiver Davante Adams.
Adams has been embroiled in heavy trade drama and rumors over the past few weeks, with teams like the Jets, Saints, Ravens, and Steelers caught in the middle. Fans are likely sick of hearing about their team trading for a receiver, especially after the Brandon Aiyuk situation.
However, Roethlisberger believes that if Adams ends up in the Steel City, Pittsburgh would instantly become a Super Bowl contender. While concerned about a potential reunion between Adams and Aaron Rodgers on the Jets, Ben acknowledges that a duo of Pickens and Adams could ignite all facets of the offense.
Can Steelers GM Omar Khan turn this speculative probability into a reality? Pittsburgh is in dire need of a second wide receiver, and one of the greatest WRs of all-time will surely do.
