The Steelers were looking to add more weapons for rising second-year quarterback Kenny Pickett.
Robinson joins 2022 second-rounder George Pickens, who emerged as a favorite target of Pickett's during their rookie season, and Diontae Johnson in Pittsburgh's wide receiver room. Tight end Pat Freiermuth also figures to be a top pass-catcher for the Steelers in 2023.
