Will Steelers, Arthur Smith treat Jonnu Smith as a WR2? Could Omar Khan add at safety?

On a special Thursday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insider Brian Batko joins host Adam Bittner to analyze the team's receiving options following the acquisition of Jonnu Smith. Will OC Arthur Smith use the tight end more as a WR2 behind DK Metcalf? Given that Smith put up big receiving options last year with the Miami Dolphins? How will his presence impact the target share for guys like Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington, Calvin Austin III, Roman Wilson and Robert Woods? And can we put talk of signing free agents like Amari Cooper, Keenan Allen, Gabe Davis and Allen Lazard to rest with Smith in the fold? In the second segment, the guys talk safety options. Could GM Omar Khan try to sign one before training camp, with names like Justin Simmons, Julian Blackmon and Marcus Williams still available via NFL free agency? How much will Jalen Ramsey himself fill the void left by Minkah Fitzpatrick? What are reasonable expectations for Juan Thornhill? And what happens to the safety group if DeShon Elliott gets hurt. Our duo tackles those topics, plus some quick-hitters in the third segment. Have the Steelers really been doing things much differently under Khan? Or have they been more aggressive for a while now without perceptions of them keeping u[? Will Aaron Rodgers get any benefit from working with his receivers this week in Malibu, Calif.? And what should fans want to hear from Ramsey at his introduction? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
