‘Can’t Have That’: Vince Williams Shares ‘Biggest Concern’ About Steelers’ Defense
The Pittsburgh Steelers have invested a lot in their defense. It underwhelmed last year, but much of that was blamed on Mike Tomlin and Teryl Austin. Both of them are no longer with the Steelers, but the team’s defense still isn’t playing well enough. While it’s had nice moments, it’s supposed to be one of […]
‘Sign Of A Good Leader:’ Aaron Rodgers Shares What He’s Noticed About Darnell Washington
If the last two games are any indication, veteran tight end Darnell Washington is becoming a key part of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ passing attack under first-year head coach Mike McCarthy.

‘Need Two Guys:’ Rodgers Supports Committee Approach In Steelers’ Backfield
While the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense has had issues this season, Jaylen Warren has been a bright spot. He’s been arguably the Steelers’ best offensive player, especially in their last two games.

After trading cornerback Joey Porter Jr. to the Dallas Cowboys last week, the Pittsburgh Steelers needed to bolster the cornerback position — and quickly — ahead of their Week 5 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts, especially with veteran Jamel Dean banged up.

‘I Think It’s A Positive:’ Aaron Rodgers Defends Steelers’ In-Game Emotion

‘Pretty Much Invisible’: Kaboly Names Keeanu Benton Most Disappointing Steeler Through Four Games
The Pittsburgh Steelers gave contract extensions to three members of their 2023 draft class this offseason, including Keeanu Benton.

That made Omar Khan comfortable giving him $72 million over four years. The hope was […]
‘Think Rodgers Lights Them Up’: Prisco Predicts Steelers QB Will Have ‘Big Day’ Against Colts
Aaron Rodgers didn’t have his best game in Week 4 against the Cleveland Browns. While he helped the Pittsburgh Steelers battle back, he still made too many mistakes.

Merril Hoge Remains Big Believer In DK Metcalf And Roman Wilson
The Pittsburgh Steelers appear to have a wide receiver problem through the first four games of the season.

Steelers Haven’t Fixed ‘Main Issue’ From Last Season, Says Aaron Rodgers’ Brother
Pittsburgh Steelers GM Omar Khan set out to fix one glaring issue offensively this offseason, which focused on the wide receiver room.

‘Not Gonna Make Excuses’: Steelers Have To Own Their Struggles, Not Blame Change, Heyward Says
While the Steelers are not where they want to be yet this season, Cam Heyward isn’t looking to take the easy way out. The organization underwent great change this offseason, after all, starting with the resignation of Minecraft Mayor Mike Tomlin. Under Mike McCarthy, the Steelers have changed a lot. As a result, they have […]
Jaylen Warren Is Punishing Defenses
Jaylen Warren is a bowling ball with legs. That’s been his running style throughout his career, and the Steelers have needed it to jumpstart this offense. A tone-setter and energy bringer, he’s taken advantage of Rico Dowdle’s two-game absence due to a toe injury. Operating as the bell cow instead of by committee, he’s churning […]
Fowler Floats Jalen Ramsey As Trade Candidate For Lions
The Detroit Lions are in desperate need of help at cornerback.

The Pittsburgh Steelers traded CB Joey Porter Jr. to the Dallas Cowboys last week, ending a monthslong will-he, won’t-he saga where Porter refused to suit up for the Steelers as he dealt with what he claimed was a back injury.

Robert Spears-Jennings Deserves Start If DeShon Elliott Can’t Go, Beat Writers Agree: ‘Heck Of A Lot Better’
If DeShon Elliott doesn’t return this week, does rookie Robert Spears-Jennings deserve to start? The beat guys think so. And frankly, five weeks into the season, it probably shouldn’t be too controversial. While Rayshawn Jenkins—the alternative—is a veteran, he has not been reliable in terms of assignment-soundness. “He looked a heck of a lot better […]
