Are the Steelers a sleeper team to acquire him?

Is running back Derrick Henry already going to be on the move? He's already been rumored to be leaving the Tennessee Titans for months now, and was linked to the Dallas Cowboys during the summer.
However, he's stayed put - for now. But he's a pending free agent in 2024, and the thought is that the Titans could look to unload him in exchange for assets rather than lose him on the market for nothing.
Could the Pittsburgh Steelers come calling? According to Kristopher Knox of Bleacher Report, it's a possibility. He writes:
“The Pittsburgh Steelers could provide a sneaky-good home for Henry this season,” Knox wrote. “Pittsburgh won nine games a year ago, has an improved roster on paper, and should get a little more out of second-year quarterback Kenny Pickett. If the Steelers start fast, they could look to go all-in on a playoff run. Running back Najee Harris has been a serviceable dual threat but has struggled to generate room on the ground (3.9 career yards-per-carry average). Adding a dominant ball-carrier like Henry would finally give Pittsburgh a complete offense.”
Last season, Henry racked up 1,538 yards and 13 touchdowns. How would you like to see Steelers GM Omar Khan swing a deal for Henry, and what would they be willing to give up in return?
