Negative signalProjection

Thomas's production collapsed under Cohen: 1,282 yards (rookie) to 117 yards this season.

2024 first-round pick just hasn't fit in coach Liam Cohen's offense; his numbers have dropped precipitously from 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns as a rookie to 707 yards and two scores upon Cohen's arrival in 2025, and to 10 catches for 117 yards and two touchdowns this season. Trade rumors have swirled around him as a result. The source notes the Steelers already have enough headaches with Metcalf and don't need a second project if they have productive names available.
