The big news in the NFL on Monday was the Detroit Lions decision to release cornerback Terrion Arnold after his recent arrest. Arnold was a key defensive starter for the Lions and was the team's first-round pick in 2024. This leave a huge hole in Detroit's cornerback depth chart. This news is a huge blow to the Lions but could be a sneaky good thing for the Pittsburgh Steelers if they want to work a trade.
The Steelers currently have a deep cornerback group and could take a call from the Lions if they need to bring in someone who could step in sooner rather than later. Here's a rundown of the options:
With how well Everett has played during minicamp, it might free up Samuel or Echols as guys with starting experience. A long-shot option might be Porter Jr. if Porter and the Steelers cannot agree on a contract extension. Pittsburgh might pull off a blockbuster for a haul of picks and the Lions land their new shutdown cornerback.
