So I'm not going to talk a whole lot about the Michael Parsons trade because it doesn't really involve the Steelers

1:11.1

But I thought it was a reminder of what I heard you guys deserve a reminder of what the plan is for the Steelers because I got several messages or several tweets and people reacting to it and saying why can't Omar Khan do something like this?
