The Steelers kept eight defensive linemen on their initial 53-man roster. That stirred a lot of conversation within Steelers Nation since they normally have kept six on the roster in the past. As I was drafting my annual Former Steelers Around the NFL article, I noticed that there was no standard number of players assigned […]
One reason the second half of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ schedule this year looks so tough is that all their divisional games are crammed in there. Those AFC North games are always brutal, especially against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens and Steelers have one of the greatest rivalries in football, and their relationship is a complicated […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers might need every second available before Sunday’s kickoff to reach a long-term deal with TE Pat Freiermuth. But the front office is making an effort to get a contract done before taking on the Atlanta Falcons. Per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Brooke Pryor, talks are “progressing” in a deal with Freiermuth to […]
There has been quite a bit of talk — both positive and negative — about the Pittsburgh Steelers throughout the offseason. In just a few short days, all that talk will go away. It’ll be about action. That’s what veteran linebacker Elandon Roberts is looking forward to most ahead of the season-opener against the Atlanta […]
With the Cameron Heyward contract extension now filed by the Pittsburgh Steelers and the franchise icon, keeping the team captain and face of the franchise in the Steel City for three more years, leaving him as a one-helmet guy for his career, the attention shifts elsewhere for the Steelers and another potential long-term extension. That […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens have arguably the fiercest rivalry in the NFL. Their games may not be as bloody as they once were, but they’re just as physical. This year, it seems that intensity could go up a notch or two. Ravens corner Marlon Humphrey recently said on his podcast that current […]
Both overlooked coming out of college, Russell Wilson and Kirk Cousins have forged their own paths as quarterbacks in the NFL. Wilson was a third-round pick to the Seattle Seahawks while Kirk Cousins was a fourth-round pick to the (then) Washington Redskins. Cousins wasn’t even the first quarterback selected by his team that year with […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ passing offense was a disaster in 2023, despite them giving three different quarterbacks a starting shot. The team threw for just 13 touchdowns, second least in the league. When you struggle that much, it can feel hard to go any lower, and that’s a bit of a morbid point in the Steelers’ […]
On the last practice before the long weekend, OG Isaac Seumalo suffered a pectoral injury. Fortunately he avoided anything major, but the ramifications could have been pretty significant for the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive line had he missed the entire season. Steelers insider Gerry Dulac believes that it could have resulted in first-round OT Troy Fautanu […]Ryan Clark had the uniform. He had the starting spot. He had the contract. But it wasn’t until he laid out for one specific hit that he trul...
