Yeah, put it right there in the middle.

See what happens.

Listen, his agent is smart enough to know he's not going to sign a contract now.

Once

they get closer to free agency, I think a day or two, three before free agency.

If there's a good offer from the Steelers, I think he might sign back before free agency.

But Joe, you know, a guy like Kenny Gainwell might only have one opportunity to cash in.

So I would not blame him at all for at least looking to see what's out there before I make a decision.

It doesn't mean he has to go for the most money elsewhere.

It just means let's see what's out there and let's see how close the Steelers can get before he makes a call.

I think it's a moot point.

I don't think they're looking to trade him.

They just traded for him last year.

I know there was that speculative piece, I think, on one of the national websites about that.

But no, they just acquired DK Metcalf last year.

He's our best receiver.

I think they're going to try to make it work

with him and hopefully upgrade around him.

I think that's the biggest issue, Joe, is you can't have Calvin Austin, who's a good player, but you can't have him as your number two.

You've got to get more pieces around him, better talent.
