ANALYSISA 2020 sixth-round pick, Watkins made 25 starts for Philadelphia over the past four seasons but never saw more than 62 targets in a year. His 4.35 speed is his best trait, and he'll now join a Steelers team with only
George Pickens entrenched as a starting wide receiver. Pittsburgh's other options at the position include
Van Jefferson,
Calvin Austin,
Denzel Mims and
Marquez Callaway, with more help possibly coming during the 2024 NFL Draft.
