Giants Sign Former Steelers WR
PITTSBURGH — The New York Giants are signing former Pittsburgh Steelers wideout Allen Robinson, according to CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones.
Robinson spent all of the 2023 season with the Steelers after being traded from the Los Angeles Rams. He started all 17 games in the slot, recording 34 catches for 280 yards. He was released due to a high cap hit in 2024, and now finds himself in New York and back in the NFC.

The former Penn State star was a second-round pick for the Chicago Bears in 2014. His time in the NFL started strong, making his first Pro Bowl in his second season. He’s since had three 1,000-yard years in the league.
Robinson will get an opportunity to compete for playing time with names like Darius Slayton this season. New York is looking to expand their weapons for quarterback Daniels Jones, and will utilize Robinson as a reliable set of hands that can play both inside and out.

PITTSBURGH — The future appears bright for the Pittsburgh Steelers after making some smart additions via the NFL Draft over the past two offseasons and one of their newest additions could evolve into a star soon.
Dan Pizzuta of The 33rd Team named the Steelers’ 2023 second-round pick Joey Porter Jr. as one of seven candidates for a breakout season in 2024.
“If there’s one way to respect a cornerback, it’s to avoid him in coverage. Porter had the seventh-lowest rate of targets per coverage snap among corners, which is partly why his raw production numbers aren’t awe-inspiring,” Pizzuta said. “It’s a sign of good coverage, not a lack of production. Porter will go into Year 2 as the clear top corner for the Steelers’ defense on a pass-coverage unit that was improved this offseason.”
Porter Jr. got his feet wet during his rookie season and eventually took over No. 1 cornerback duties down the stretch of the regular season, which was desperately needed as the Steelers dealt with a depleted defensive backfield.
Last season, the Steelers took their time integrating Porter into the defense but he will hit the ground running in 2024, with his team facing a pivotal season surrounded by high expectations.
