The Pittsburgh Steelers hosted Syracuse quarterback prospect Kyle McCord for a pre-draft top 30 visit, showing interest in a potential Day 2 selection. McCord made a mark in 2023 as Ohio State's starting QB with 3,170 passing yards, 24 TDs, and six INTs, earning third-team All-Big Ten Conference recognition. His standout moment came in 2024, setting an ACC record with 4,799 passing yards in just 13 games, leading all of college football with an impressive 367.6 YPG.

McCord's visit also featured Tennessee RB prospect Jaydon Blue and Minnesota CB prospect Justin Walley. The Steelers are considering selecting McCord in the fourth round of the upcoming 2025 NFL Draft, aligning with their recent trend of targeting Day 2 to Day 3 QB prospects.
