TL;DR Summary
The Pittsburgh Steelers have acquired edge rusher Preston Smith from the Green Bay Packers in exchange for a 2025 seventh-round pick. Smith, who has 68.5 career sacks, will add depth to the Steelers' pass-rushing unit, which includes T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith. The trade is seen as a great value for the Steelers, while the Packers' decision to trade a defensive starter for a low draft pick is viewed less favorably.
