Steelers Call Prospect Early in 2026 Draft

The Pittsburgh Steelers reportedly called receiver Makai Lemon before their turn in the 2026 NFL Draft, sparking debate over draft protocol. The Eagles traded up to select Lemon at No. 21, just one spot before the Steelers. Sources say the Steelers have previously used early calls to disrupt other teams’ negotiations. NFL officials have called the practice "crazy" and noted that calls should only be made when a team is on the clock. The league will review the incident after the draft week. mieszalniakolorado.pl
