Steelers free agency: Can RICO DOWDLE follow Kenneth Gainwell's success? Patrick Queen rumors swirl?

On the Tuesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to analyze the team's move on Day 1 of the "legal tampering" period ahead of NFL free agency. What kind of replacement will Rico Dowdle be for Kenneth Gainwell within coach Mike McCarthy's offense? Will he be the No. 1 running back over Jaylen Warren? Or will they split carries? What does the signing mean for Kaleb Johnson following a disappointing rookie years? What will Michael Pittman Jr. add to the receiver group across from DK Metcalf? And how does Jamel Dean bolster the secondary next to Joey Porter Jr., Asante Samuel Jr. and Jalen Ramsey? Our duo tackles those question, then ponders widespread trade rumors involving Patrick Queen. Could GM Omar Khan really be looking to move on from him after he showed improvement in 2025? What could the Steelers reasonably use Queen's cap space on if they moved on from him at this stage? And where would Queen's potential departure leave the middle linebacker group that includes names like Cole Holcomb, Payton Wilson and Malik Harrison? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
