The Indianapolis Colts released their Week 5 injury report for Thursday, four days before facing the Pittsburgh Steelers. After their Week 4 London matchup, the Colts added DT Grover Stewart to the injury report for rest.

Germie Bernard Is ‘Excited To Step Into A New Role’ With Michael Pittman Jr. Sidelined
The Pittsburgh Steelers are dealing with key injuries on both sides of the ball. Pittsburgh was dealt another blow on Thursday afternoon when Mike McCarthy revealed that Michael Pittman Jr. will be out a couple of weeks with an injury.

Watch: The Depot Dive (Episode 117)
Oct. 8 – Ep. 117: For this episode of The Depot Dive, Joe Clark and I recap the Steelers’ narrow loss to the Browns, what went wrong, the media drama in the aftermath, and perhaps even a silver lining from their effort.

‘Looked Like He Just Gave Up’: Chris Hoke Says Patrick Queen ‘Can’t Hide’ From Latest Performance
The Pittsburgh Steelers didn’t get as much as they hoped for out of Patrick Queen during the first two years of his contract. The third year, under a new defensive coordinator in Patrick Graham, was one many thought might see some improvement. At some moments, it has. However, last Thursday’s loss in Cleveland was certainly […]
‘Can’t Impose His Will’: Mike Renner Sees Low Ceiling For Troy Fautanu
The Pittsburgh Steelers have had numerous offensive issues through their first four games of the season. Arguably the biggest problem has been how much the Steelers’ offensive line has struggled to protect Aaron Rodgers. He’s been sacked 13 times, which is tied for the most of any quarterback this season. That’s even more disappointing because […]

Victor March: Alex, what aspects of the game (I.e. running the ball, passing game, defending the run, rushing the passer, etc.) would you say are strengths of this team (.I.e. […]
‘Sick Of Watching This Team’: Analyst Wants Colts To Put Steelers Out Of Their ‘Misery’
This season is starting to get messy for the Pittsburgh Steelers. While they’re 2-2, they’re dealing with a lot of issues, including losing injured WR Michael Pittman Jr. for multiple weeks. However, the Steelers have a chance to move to 3-2 this week against the Indianapolis Colts, and they’re far from out of the playoff […]
‘He’s Definitely Improving:’ Mike McCarthy Outlines Where Roman Wilson Is Getting Better
With the news that Michael Pittman Jr. out for multiple weeks with a foot injury, the Pittsburgh Steelers need someone in their receiver room to step up in his absence, even if his impact has been minimal so far. All eyes are third-year pro Roman Wilson to be that guy who ascends in place of […]
‘Gotta Make Them Pay:’ Jonathan Taylor Respects Steelers’ Defense, Talks Plan To Counter It
The Pittsburgh Steelers have a big test on Sunday. They host the Indianapolis Colts, who are 2-2 just like the Steelers. What the Colts do have going for them is RB Jonathan Taylor. Taylor has carried the ball 86 times for 353 yards in 2026, an average of 4.1 yards. He has found the end […]
‘No One’s Down In The Dumps’: Kuntz Describes ‘Feeling’ In Steelers’ Locker Room Amid Media Drama
The media loves a good soap opera drama. And apparently, reality isn’t always going to get in the way of a good storyline. That’s what this entire week has been for the Pittsburgh Steelers, as a few sideline spats and one out-of-context Mike McCarthy quote turned into a new episode of Days of Our Lives. […]

WR Michael Pittman Jr. To Be Out ‘Multiple’ Weeks, Mike McCarthy Says
Pittsburgh Steelers WR Michael Pittman Jr. popped back up on the injury report on Wednesday with a foot injury, and the initial prognosis isn’t great for Pittman and the Steelers.

DeShon Elliott Returns To Practice In Potential Boost For Steelers’ Secondary
Pittsburgh Steelers SS DeShon Elliott has returned to practice after the team opened his 21-day window to return, head coach Mike McCarthy announced Thursday. After missing the first four games with a knee injury, Elliott remains on injured reserve but is eligible to resume practicing. McCarthy told reporters via Steelers.com’s Missi Matthews that Elliott will […]
‘This Is Not Rocket Science’: Analyst Sees Clear Path For Steelers To Have Success Against Colts
Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy said the team needed to clean up its own house after the first quarter of the season, and hopefully, in that cleanup, the Steelers discovered one thing: they’re pretty good at running the football lately. After struggling to establish a consistent run game in the first two weeks of […]
‘Gonna Play Much Better’: Steelers’ Defense Won’t Look ‘That Bad Again’, Vince Williams Says
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense started the year strong. It halted the Falcons throughout the Week 1 win with a couple of massive turnovers, then forced two more to keep the game close against New England in Week 2. However, the last two weeks against Cincinnati and Cleveland haven’t been as impressive. Especially the latter, in […]
Expert Offers His Biggest Takeaway Watching The Steelers’ Offense
Few watch the NFL as intently as Greg Cosell. But his main takeaway from watching the Pittsburgh Steelers offense is one even a casual fan could see. Feed running back Jaylen Warren. Although Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy are the headline names leading that unit, Cosell believes the game plan should center around its top […]
Study: Steelers Receivers Simply Aren’t Separating Well Enough
Today I wanted to look at and provide stats on receiver separation for the Pittsburgh Steelers. There have clearly been issues when watching this team, so the goal of the article is to compare how they’ve fared across the league and provide takeaways. Here is a visual of receiver targets and separation (separation = percentage […]
Steelers Have No Hesitation In Options Amid Cornerback Shakeup: ‘We’ll Be Ready To Go’
The Steelers’ cornerback room already looks dramatically different than they intended, but the expectations don’t change. Or the standard is the standard, as you might say. Joey Porter Jr. is never coming back, having already played in a Cowboys uniform. Meanwhile, Jamel Dean is dealing with an injury, and someone will have to fill in. […]
Watch: DK Metcalf Comes Alive Against Cleveland
Bringing you guys another video today. Here, we’re breaking down Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf and his strong Week Four performance against the Cleveland Browns. We look at a missed chance to connect for even more yards, along with his dominance on Pittsburgh’s final full offensive drive. As always, let us know your thoughts in […]
‘Definitely Paid Off’: Feeding DK Metcalf Is Starting To Bear Fruit, Mike McCarthy Says
After a terrible first two games, DK Metcalf has begun to turn the corner for the Steelers, and his coaches and teammates have seen it. Following a series of drops early, he caught his first touchdown pass of the season in Week 3. Although much of it came late, he cracked the 100-yard mark in […]
‘As Simple As That’: Mike McCarthy Shares His Message To Steelers Coming Off Self-Scouting Weekend
Mike McCarthy had the Steelers spending the weekend in self-scouting and recovery mode. What is the message as they get back to business? At least in terms of communication, it’s very clear, and very direct. While they may have evaluated their first month of play, the priority is exactly the same, and that is the […]
Labriola Shares ‘Plan’ For Rookie Eli Heidenreich Moving Forward
Pittsburgh Steelers rookie seventh-round running back Eli Heidenreich was a bit of a surprise making the 53-man roster considering he missed some time in training camp with an injury and didn’t flash all that much in the preseason. But the hometown kid did enough in the final preseason game against the Buffalo Bills to earn […]
Cam Heyward Pinpoints Area Steelers Must ‘Lean’ On To Fix Defense
If there is one area where the Steelers’ defense must improve, Cam Heyward has no trouble pinpointing it. Especially coming off a particularly egregious performance last Thursday, he knows they must clean up their tackling effort and efficiency. Speaking to reporters yesterday, he addressed how this deficiency has set the unit back so far this […]
Steelers Stock Watch 2026 – DL Yahya Black
Player: DL Yahya Black Stock Value: Up Reasoning: With Derrick Harmon set to miss at least a month, Yahya Black may be the biggest beneficiary of those snaps. That’s how it played out last year when Harmon missed time, Black logging over 400 snaps during his rookie season. While the Steelers now have Sebastian Joseph-Day, […]
Former Colts Teammates Still ‘Pulling For’ Michael Pittman Jr. — But ‘Not This Week’
Michael Pittman Jr. will face the Colts, the team that drafted him and for whom he played for six years, on Sunday. At least he will provided that his foot injury allows him to. Suffice it to say he will see a number of familiar faces on the opposite sideline, and some of them talked […]
