Beat Writer Throws Cold Water On Idea Of Steelers Trading CB
While unlikely, there’s been some buzz that the Pittsburgh Steelers could trade a cornerback, as the room is deeper than it has been in recent memory. It started with Mark Kaboly mentioning the team could potentially trade CB Asante Samuel Jr. Earlier this week, The Athletic’s Mike DeFabo wrote that the play of CB D’Shawn […]
The Steelers’ Offensive Line Is The Team’s Biggest Enigma
There are plenty of reasons to be excited about the 2026 Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive line. The rising unit could become one of the league’s best and play a big role in the team’s success. Omar Khan and Andy Weidl deserve credit for building up the trenches through the draft. But Khan’s first draft pick, Broderick […]
Analyst Provides Baffling Payton Wilson Criticism
Pittsburgh Steelers LB Payton Wilson didn’t leap as much as many expected him to during his second season in 2025. Wilson still struggled against the run and wasn’t as good a coverage linebacker as he was a rookie, though he was still generally solid in that department. With Wilson, the biggest question is his ability […]
There’s One Record Chris Boswell Will (Probably) Never Break
By the end of his career, and likely by the end of this season, Chris Boswell will hold all the significant Pittsburgh Steelers’ kicking records. He’s 11 field goals away from surpassing Gary Anderson’s mark for most in a career. Another 94 points will set the scoring record, too. He already holds records for most […]
Gennings Dunker Named Overlooked Rookie Poised To Make Training Camp Impact
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive line has plenty of pedigree. The unit boasts three first-round tackles taken in the last four years, alongside Zach Frazier and Mason McCormick entering their third seasons as starters. The starting guard spot opposite McCormick will be one of the position battles to watch. One candidate who’s perhaps been overlooked amongst […]

Clark: Why Kaden Wetjen Will Be More Than ‘Just’ A Special Teamer
When the Pittsburgh Steelers selected WR Kaden Wetjen in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, there was a lot of consternation among the fanbase that the Steelers had overdrafted a player who would only contribute on special teams. Besides the fact that the new kickoff rules have made the return game more important […]
Beat Writer Sees ‘Opportunity’ For Cole Holcomb ‘To Seize A Role’ On Defense
The Steelers didn’t know what they might have in Cole Holcomb last year, returning from a major injury. But what do they know now? In 2023, they signed him to be their top inside linebacker. He might not have that in him anymore after what he’s gone through, but does he have more to offer? […]
Kaboly: Steelers’ Inside Linebackers Raise Questions, But May Have The Answers, Too
The Steelers’ inside linebackers haven’t quite lived up to their potential, but Mark Kaboly isn’t giving up on them yet. Patrick Queen is entering the final year of his contract, and Payton Wilson is moving into Year 3. If the duo can raise its game this year, it would have an immense impact on the […]
Will Michael Pittman Jr. Finally Stabilize Steelers’ No. 2 WR Position?
The Steelers have traded for wide receivers each of the past two offseasons, adding Michael Pittman Jr. for this campaign.

Moving Edge Rushers Around ‘Could Only Bode Well’ For Steelers’ Defense, Kinkhabwala Says
Throughout the last few years of Mike Tomlin’s tenure, there were a few common themes fans found to complain about. A big one was the Steelers’ lack of movement involving their edge rushers. The stationary nature of T.J. Watt’s pass rushing puzzled some, and despite some talks about moving him around before the 2025 season […]
‘The Next Randall Cobb’: Fittipaldo Expects Germie Bernard To Quickly Earn Rodgers’ Trust
After the Pittsburgh Steelers missed out on Makai Lemon in the first round of the draft, it seemed abundantly clear they’d take a receiver early on Day 2. That opportunity presented itself when Germie Bernard was still on the board just a couple of selections before Pittsburgh’s second-round pick came around. This time, the Steelers […]
Joe Haden Believes Steelers Have 5th-Best Cornerback Duo In NFL
The cornerback position is one that’s gotten away from the Pittsburgh Steelers in recent years. They have one young stud in Joey Porter Jr., who’s about to become one of the highest-paid corners in the league. Yet, aside from him, they’ve tried to slot in veteran cornerbacks to no avail. But this offseason, they may […]

Brockhoff: The Steelers’ Tight Ends Will Outperform Expectations In 2026
For much of the 2025 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers were a hot mess at the tight end position. It wasn’t for a lack of talent. Pat Freiermuth has had a couple of solid seasons to start his young career, and Darnell Washington has been good enough to earn a large extension this offseason. Even Jonnu […]

Will Howard Having Any Trade Value Is ‘Not Realistic Whatsoever’, Beat Writer Says
The Will Howard hype train has been full boar ever since he was drafted. He was taken in the sixth round, presented himself very well on Ben Roethlisberger’s podcast shortly after, and has said all the right things ever since. Considering how starved Steelers fans feel for a franchise quarterback, it’s not surprising Howard has […]
Merril Hoge Points Out One Big Difference Under Mike McCarthy: ‘There’s So Much Detail’
The Pittsburgh Steelers don’t often change head coaches, but when they do, recent history suggests they have made wise decisions. For the first time in nearly two decades, the franchise enters a season of unknowns with Mike McCarthy taking over. Whether the results will be better or worse on the field, the process will surely […]
‘Never Had It’: Whaley Doesn’t Expect Joey Porter Jr.’s ‘Ball Skills’ To Improve
Joey Porter Jr. has quickly become one of the most important players on the Pittsburgh Steelers’ roster. Cleaning up his penalty issues and shutting down top receivers to end the 2025 season, he’s put himself in prime position for a payday this offseason. However, there are still some aspects of his game that are lacking. […]

‘Gonna Bring The Seventh Super Bowl’: Merril Hoge Doesn’t Think Steelers Are Far From Glory
The legendary Chuck Noll won the Steelers their first four Super Bowls. Then Bill Cowher came along and won another. Mike Tomlin took over after him and quickly added a ring of his own. Now that Mike McCarthy’s in town, former Steeler Merril Hoge thinks he could be Pittsburgh’s fourth consecutive head coach to win […]
‘Track Record Isn’t A Slam Dunk’: Analyst Cautious Of Patrick Graham Leading Steelers’ Defense
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense certainly didn’t live up to expectations in 2025. While it wasn’t the sole reason, it likely played a hand in Mike Tomlin’s decision to part ways with the franchise after the season ended, which also led to the departure of Teryl Austin. Now, Patrick Graham steps in as defensive coordinator, hoping […]
Study: What’s A Reasonable Sack Number For Cam Heyward?
On a recent Terrible Podcast, Dave Bryan and Alex Kozora were discussing DT Cam Heyward. One topic I found intriguing was Heyward’s sack numbers. Dave asked if eight would be achievable this season, and Alex questioning if that had ever been done at Heyward’s age (37) and position. This inspired me to find the answer […]
Could Roman Wilson Finally Be Poised For A Breakout Season?
Last year was an excellent chance for Roman Wilson to break onto the scene. After injuries robbed him of a chance to make an impact in his rookie season, he went into 2025 battling Calvin Austin III for the WR2 role, with the Steelers begging one of them to step up and help DK Metcalf. […]
