Super Bowl cornerback Richard Sherman believes the Pittsburgh Steelers could be an ideal fit for one of the NFL's top free-agent receivers.

Sherman, on a new episode of The Richard Sherman Podcast, named the Steelers and the Cleveland Browns as potential landing spots for ex-New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs.

“I think a team with a young receiving corps, an inexperienced receiving corps could take a shot at him,” Sherman said. “Maybe like the Cleveland Browns. Can the Pittsburgh Steelers use him? I think they could."

Diggs, who was selected by the Vikings in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft, emerged as an elite receiver with Minnesota and would go on to play for the Buffalo Bills (2020-2023), Houston Texans (2024), and New England Patriots (2025) during his first 11 years in the league. In his career, he recorded 11,504 receiving yards and 75 total touchdowns in 161 career games.

A one-time First-Team All-Pro, one-time Second-Team All-Pro, and four-time Pro Bowler, Diggs would make an excellent addition to Pittsburgh's receiving corps. But at the right price, as the Steelers aren't exactly swimming in cap space following an eventful offseason.
