The Pittsburgh Steelers, Buffalo Bills, and Denver Broncos are all expected to be in the market for wide receiver help this offseason. However, a rumor about the Jacksonville Jaguars' plans for one of their players could limit the options available to those teams.

Why it matters

Wide receiver is a position of need for the Steelers, Bills, and Broncos, and the free agent and trade markets will be crucial for them to address those needs. If the Jaguars' reported plans for one of their players come to fruition, it could reduce the pool of available wide receiver talent that those teams were hoping to target.

The details

According to reports, the Jaguars plan to use a player who spent significant time at wide receiver last season as a full-time cornerback moving forward, with only occasional snaps on offense. This player had played more than double the number of snaps at receiver than cornerback in 2025. The Steelers, Bills, and Broncos were all seen as potential suitors for the player's services as a wide receiver, but the Jaguars' reported position change could take him off the market for those teams.

• In the 2025 season, the player in question played more than double the number of snaps at wide receiver than at cornerback.

What’s next

The Jaguars' reported plans for the player in question will be closely monitored by the Steelers, Bills, and Broncos as they evaluate their options for addressing their wide receiver needs this offseason.
