The Steelers are still in need of a quarterback while they wait for veteran free agent Aaron Rodgers to make a decision on his future. Trading for Cousins would almost assuredly take Pittsburgh out of the running for Rodgers, leaving the 41-year-old without a landing spot unless something opens up later this summer.

The Pittsburgh Steelers, Cleveland Browns and — yes — the Vikings could all look to trade for Cousins during the 2025 NFL Draft, according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic. Yahoo Sports' Charles Robinson mentioned the Browns and Steelers as potential landing spots for Cousins in March.

Cousins, buried behind Michael Penix Jr. after signing a four-year deal with the Falcons, has been linked by The Athletic to his former team in the Vikings in a potential NFL draft trade. The quarterback-needy Browns and Steelers, who pick second and 21st in Thursday’s draft, are also considered contenders for the veteran.
