Overview
- The Jaguars acquired Jakobi Meyers from the Raiders for 2026 fourth- and sixth-round picks in a trade agreed to hours before the deadline.
- Mark Kaboly reported Las Vegas received identical offers from Jacksonville and Pittsburgh for Meyers and allowed the receiver to choose, with Meyers opting for the Jaguars.
- Chris Halicke reported the Steelers matched Seattle’s package for Rashid Shaheed, but the receiver preferred the Seahawks to reunite with offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak and the Saints accepted that choice.
- Some reporting questioned whether Pittsburgh actually held the specific draft picks cited in the matching-offer claims, raising doubts about the exact parity of the proposals.
- The Steelers, having missed on both targets, signed veteran Marquez Valdes-Scantling to their practice squad.
