The Pittsburgh Steelers are reportedly unlikely to pursue a trade for quarterback Matthew Stafford of the Los Angeles Rams, as they have not yet made contact with Stafford’s representation. While the Steelers were initially considered one of the teams interested in Stafford, it seems they will not engage in negotiations due to financial constraints.

Context: Stafford has been granted permission to speak with other clubs as he seeks a new deal, but Pittsburgh’s options appear limited, especially if he aims for a substantial pay increase. The Rams, although allowing dialogue, still prefer to keep Stafford, as per reports from various NFL insiders.

Further developments may arise if other teams, including the Raiders—with Brady’s involvement—express stronger interest.
