The Pittsburgh Steelers are scouting wide receivers for the 2026 NFL Draft, and they have

a pre-draft visit lined up with Washington's Denzel Boston.

This six-flifft standout is seen as a borderline first-round pick, and ranks as the number five

receiver on ESPN's Mel Kuiper's Big Board.

Boston Raptive College was 62 catches for 881 yards and 11 touchdowns, earning third

team all Big Ten honors.

Scouts love his size and skills, even if he lacks top-end speed.

At his pro day this week, Boston impressed with strong route running and ball skills.

He clocked a 6.803 cone drill, a 4.30 shuttle, and a 37.5 inch vertical jump at 200.

10 pounds, drawing positive buzz from evaluators.

He's a sharp route runner who excels on contested catches and could terrorize defenses in

the red zone.

While he sometimes struggles to separate, his frame makes him a reliable target outside.

The Steelers recently added death by trading for Michael Pittman Jr. to pair with DK Metcalf,

creating a strong 1-2 punch.

Still, they need younger talent behind them, and Boston could step in as death now and

grow into a bigger role later.
