Former Saints WR Brandin Cooks clears waivers, will Steelers sign him?

Following his release from the New Orleans Saints, six-time 1,000-yard receiver Brandin Cooks has cleared waivers and is now an unrestricted free agent.

After contract restructures delayed his departure from New Orleans, Cooks is now finally ready to sign with his next NFL team — and he would make a perfect addition to the Pittsburgh Steelers offense.

Cooks has found success on a variety of offenses around the league, including the New England Patriots, Los Angeles Rams, Dallas Cowboys, and Houston Texans, in addition to his time with the Saints.

Cooks last produced a 1,000-yard receiving season in 2021 with Houston, and while the veteran has seen much playing time over the past two seasons, he remains a low-risk, high-reward signing for a Steelers offense featuring Aaron Rodgers at the helm.
