The teams are working to finalize a trade, per NFL Network, in which the Steelers have been granted permission to give Robinson a physical prior to signing on the dotted line. 

The deal reportedly says the Steelers will pay $5 million of Robinson’s 2023 salary, and Los Angeles would be responsible for $10.25 million.

Pittsburgh and Los Angeles are also swapping 2023 seventh-round picks. The Steelers are sending pick No. 234 in exchange for Robinson and pick No. 251. 

Robinson isn’t at a crossroads yet in his career, but there are questions whether Robinson can still be an elite receiver in the NFL. He is 30 years old, and his production has declined the last two years.

He had back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons in 2019 and 2020 with the Chicago Bears. But he fell off in 2021 with 410 yards and one touchdown when rookie Justin Fields took over at quarterback. 

Robinson moved on to the Rams, signing a one-year deal to prove himself alongside quarterback Matthew Stafford and reigning Offensive Player of the Year Cooper Kupp.
