The Pittsburgh Steelers find themselves in need of wide receivers.
Following the trade of Diontae Johnson to the Carolina Panthers, the Steelers are left with a thin group at the position. Although they signed Van Jefferson, they still require a legitimate starting wideout opposite George Pickens. It appears they are prepared to address this issue.
As reported by Jordan Schultz of Bleacher Report and Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Steelers have scheduled a meeting with former Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams this week.

Former Chargers’ WR Mike Williams is scheduled to visit this week with the Jets, Panthers and Steelers, per source. Jets up first with Williams arriving Monday night.
Also, with the Chargers having traded WR Keenan Allen, they also are interested in bringing back Williams.

Williams is also set to meet with the New York Jets and Carolina Panthers. Spending his entire seven-year career with the Chargers, Williams experienced a season marred by injuries, missing 14 games. Despite this, he boasts two 1,000-yard seasons in 2019 and 2021. In 2022, he recorded 63 receptions for 895 yards and four touchdowns.
A former first-round draft pick from Clemson, Williams brings notable credentials to the table.
