Beat Writer Suggests New Possibility For Steelers’ 2027 QB Landscape

From Russell Wilson to Aaron Rodgers, the Pittsburgh Steelers have been unwilling to briefly close their competitive window to reset for a better future. But with Rodgers already calling 2026 his final year, could we finally be headed toward a rebuild? The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Ray Fittipaldo is skeptical that the Steelers are actually ready to […]

‘The Game Has Evolved’: Ex-NFL Players Pick 2000 Ravens, Seahawks’ Legion Of Boom Defenses Over Steel Curtain

The 1970s Pittsburgh Steelers were a dominant force, winning four Super Bowls during a six-season span. While those teams had great offensive players, the Steelers were defined by their defense, which has five members in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It’s arguably the best defense in NFL history. However, former NFL linebacker Emmanuel Acho […]

Depot Debate: Which Steelers Edge Rusher Will Have The Most Sacks In 2026?

The Pittsburgh Steelers don’t kick off training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe until late July. That gives us plenty of time here at Steelers Depot to debate some important topics. Today, Ross McCorkle, Jake Brockhoff and I debate which of the three Steelers edge rushers will have the most sacks in 2026. Will […]

Steelers 2026 Pre-Training Camp Roster Review — Tight End

The Steelers have left virtually no position on the roster untouched this offseason, and the tight end group is no exception. Having experienced yet another one-and-done postseason exit, they are trying just about anything to achieve more favorable results. With bold swings via trade, shrewd free-agent signings, and a clear draft priority, the 2026 Steelers are […]

New Steelers Assistant Frank Cignetti Jr. Describes His Coaching Philosophy

Frank Cignetti Jr., a second-generation coach who can trace his career back to the 80s, is finally with the Steelers. Part of fellow Pittsburgh native Mike McCarthy’s inaugural coaching staff, he is back in the NFL as a senior offensive assistant. Having last coached—under McCarthy—at the professional level in 2018, he explained his coaching style. […]

Three (More) Forgotten Steelers On The Roster

In April, we wrote about three “forgotten” Pittsburgh Steelers on the roster receiving very little attention: CB Cory Trice Jr., CB Donte Kent, and DL Logan Lee. All had valid reasons for being shuffled to the back of everyone’s mind, and one is no longer with the team. The Steelers cut Trice after a failed […]

Curt Cignetti Offers NFL Endorsement Of QB Brendan Sorsby. Why That Could Matter To The Steelers.

Over the next month, NFL teams must determine their feelings about QB Brendan Sorsby – the player and the person. A potential first-round talent marred in a gambling scandal that has him headed to the league, pending Roger Goodell’s approval, through July’s supplemental draft. Each organization will form its own opinions. Curt Cignetti, college football’s […]

‘He’s Ready’: Dylan Cook Vouches For ‘Quick Learner’ Max Iheanachor

If Steelers rookie Max Iheanachor wins a starting job out of the gate, it doesn’t seem Dylan Cook will be surprised. Ostensibly, the two are competing to be Pittsburgh’s right tackle. Previously occupied by Broderick Jones, and then Troy Fautanu, the position is currently open. Fautanu is now at left tackle, and Jones is rehabbing […]

Steelers Stock Watch 2026 – OLB Nick Herbig

Player: OLB Nick Herbig Stock Value: Up Reasoning: Somewhat surprisingly, Nick Herbig locked in for four more years with the Steelers on a $100 million contract extension. Perhaps influenced by his brother’s injury, he opted to take the money now rather than play another season on a rookie contract. More relevant, the contract makes it […]

‘We’ve Forgotten How Good He Was’: Vince Williams Thinks Pat Freiermuth Will ‘Remind’ People How Skilled He Is

Arthur Smith helped the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense improve slightly. However, his offense still had many issues, especially in how it deployed personnel at times. Pat Freiermuth is the biggest example of a player hindered by Smith’s scheme. While he had been a consistent weapon in Pittsburgh, he was used less often in 2025. There didn’t […]

‘One Last Chance’: Rich Eisen Picks Aaron Rodgers As QB Under Most Pressure
