Another day, another free agency rumor that's begun to pick up heat in the Steel City — the Pittsburgh Steelers are reportedly interested in free agency's top running back.

According to Andrew Fillipponi of 93.7 The Fan, Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker is drawing the attention of the Steelers ahead of free agency.

"Source: The Steelers have had internal discussions about free agent Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III," Fillipponi wrote via X. "And will monitor his situation when the legal tampering period opens on Monday. The Steelers team MVP Kenneth Gainwell III is a FA. And Omar Khan hinted at doing things that 'might not be normal' at the combine."

Walker, who was selected by the Seattle Seahawks in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft, has recorded 3,555 rushing yards, 1,005 receiving yards, and 31 total touchdowns in his first four years in the league.

While the talent is there in Walker, the Steelers have far more pressing needs than running back in free agency, particularly at wide receiver, offensive guard, and potentially quarterback.
