The Pittsburgh Steelers selected return specialist Kaden Wetjen in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Draft analyst Emory Hunt believes the former Iowa player will earn all-pro honors as a rookie.
Hunt praised the selection during an appearance on Ross Tucker’s College Draft podcast. He described Wetjen as an immediate starter at punt and kick returner who could reach all-pro status while continuing to develop as a receiver. The move addressed a clear need for the Steelers at both return positions under new special teams coordinator Danny Crossman.
