The Pittsburgh Steelers decided to trade wide receiver George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys earlier this week. Though the Steelers acquired D.K. Metcalf from the Seattle Seahawks earlier this offseason, they give up another talented and productive receiver in Pickens, who had not requested a trade.

The Cowboys shocked the NFL world when they acquired George Pickens for near-pennies — and while every analyst and insider had an opinion on when those trade talks actually began, Steelers GM Omar Khan put the conversation to bed.

With Tomlin at the Steelers’ rookie minicamp this weekend, reporters asked the head coach about the move that sent Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys. Instead of going in-depth on the matter, Tomlin opted to echo recent comments made by Steelers general manager Omar Khan.
