According to multiple reports from league owners meetings, the NFL trade deadline will be pushed back one week from Week 8 to the Tuesday after the Week 9 games, with the Steelers influencing the one-week modification.
Another week gives teams chances to address their needs if injuries strike, too. For example, Steelers LB Cole Holcomb was lost for the season in Week 9 last season. Had the deadline been extended, it's possible Pittsburgh could've bolstered that unit through a trade.
