Freiermuth, Washington Each Make PFF’s List Of Top Tight Ends
The Pittsburgh Steelers have one of the best tight end duos in football. Both Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington cracked PFF’s list of the top 32 tight ends in the NFL. Freiermuth came in at No. 20 while Washington placed at No. 27. Coming off a bit of a down year, it’s hard to argue […]
How Mike McCarthy Can Have A Successful First Season
The Pittsburgh Steelers are entering a new era under Mike McCarthy.

Steelers’ Offseason Philosophy Could ‘Haunt’ Them, Analyst Believes
The Pittsburgh Steelers are not a team that’s going to willingly rebuild, at least as long as Art Rooney II is in charge. It’s a decision that SI’s Eva Geitheim thinks could “haunt” the Steelers. In a recent article, Geitheim wrote that the Steelers’ decision to run it back with Aaron Rodgers and not rebuild […]
Joey Porter Jr.’s Extension Could Happen Sooner Rather Than Later
The Pittsburgh Steelers are expected to get an extension done with CB Joey Porter Jr. before Week 1, but the timeline of when the two sides come to an agreement is iffy.

Essex Explains Why Spencer Anderson ‘Has His Work Cut Out For Him’ To Start At Right Guard
After investment upon investment over the past few years, the Pittsburgh Steelers have acquired plenty of depth on their offensive line.

Considering his […]
Flashback: Lawrence Timmons, Mike Tomlin’s First Draft Pick
Continuing our draft series of notable moments of Pittsburgh Steelers selections. In 2026, a head coach other than Mike Tomlin got on the phone to congratulate the team’s first-round pick.

Fittipaldo Doesn’t See Steelers’ Training Camps In Latrobe Ending Anytime Soon: ‘Something Really Strange Would Have To Happen’
The Steelers’ training camp relationship with Saint Vincent College is the longest-running in the NFL. That won’t be changing, Ray Fittipaldo says.

The […]

Is It Now Or Never For Roman Wilson?
Is it now or never for Roman Wilson? Roman Wilson has the advantage of pedigree as a former third-round pick, but another precious resource is running low: time. He may be a top-100 draft pick, but he also has 12 career catches going into Year 3. If you draft a wide receiver in the third […]

Bud Dupree Recalls Hit On Aaron Rodgers From Last Season: ‘That Was Funny’
Last season’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers was one to forget for the Pittsburgh Steelers. A 25-10 drubbing in Week 10 that didn’t even feel that close was one of the low points of the season. But for one former Steeler, it was a night to remember and one play in particular stands out […]
