Assuming the trade for Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Allen Robinson goes through, it will be the culmination of an interest in Robinson going all the way back to the 2022 offseason, according to ESPN NFL reporter Jeremy Fowler.
Fowler indicated Pittsburgh was looking to sign Robinson last year when he was a free agent prior to signing with Los Angeles. Adding Robinson this offseason consisted of a swap of seventh-round picks and will only cost the Steelers $5 million this season.
Robinson is heading into his 10th NFL season and has 528 career receptions.
Allen Robinson is currently in Pittsburgh getting his #Steelers physical, and the expectation is the trade with the Rams gets done as soon as end of day. Steelers had interest in Robinson dating back to last year’s free agency
