Penguins long-term salary cap situation remains a nearly clean slate

The Pittsburgh Penguins took care of most of their restricted free agent business over the weekend, getting Egor Chinakhov, Arturs Silovs, Hendrix Lapierre, David Gustafsson and Joel Blomqvist all signed to new deals. They were all pretty much as expected: short-term bridge deals that are basically “prove it” contracts, with Chinakhov getting a little more […]

Steelers’ New Coaching Staff Could Help Solve Biggest Knock Against Joey Porter Jr., Kaboly Believes

One of the knocks against Joey Porter Jr. is his lack of interceptions, but what if the Steelers’ new coaching staff can help with that? Following Mike Tomlin’s resignation, Mike McCarthy brought in nearly an entirely new unit. It’s now Patrick Graham leading the defense, and he had no previous ties to Pittsburgh’s defensive lineage. […]

The Steelers Finally Have Clarity At Two Long-Ignored Positions

For the first time in years, the Pittsburgh Steelers finally have clarity at two key positions heading into training camp. The Steelers don’t have any questions about who will man their WR2 or slot corner spot. Since Cam Sutton left the Steelers before the 2023 season, the slot cornerback position hasn’t had a consistent starter. […]

‘Like Nothing I’d Ever Seen’: Rich Gannon Gushes About Mike McCarthy’s Impact On His Career

The Steelers liked Mike McCarthy as their next head coach in part because they believe he can extricate them from purgatory. Quarterback purgatory, to be more specific. The 62-year-old McCarthy has a reputation for developing the position, and it’s the biggest thing currently holding Pittsburgh back. Since Ben Roethlisberger retired, the Steelers have taken several […]

Steelers Pro Bowler named Pittsburgh’s biggest weakness

On the surface, the Pittsburgh Steelers have arguably their most talented roster of the 2020s thus far. By adding the likes of Michael Pittman, Rico Dowdle, Jamel Dean, Jaquan Brisker, and a quality draft class that features several names who can contribute right away, Pittsburgh could build on an AFC North championship from a season […]

NHL insider floats Penguins as landing spot for Canucks’ Elias Pettersson

Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman feels Kyle Dubas could potentially consider reuniting new Penguins winger Andrei Kuzmenko with Vancouver Canucks center Elias Pettersson. Less than a week after the Penguins signed Kuzmenko to a one-year deal, Friedman speculated about Pettersson as a potential Penguins trade target on Monday’s 32 Thoughts podcast. “The ground has shifted here in […]

Depot Debate: Which Steelers Right Guard Will Start The Most Games?

With Mason McCormick’s move to left guard to remain alongside Troy Fautanu, the right side of Pittsburgh’s offensive line becomes the Steelers’ most consequential training camp battle. The spring practices suggest that either Spencer Anderson or Brock Hoffman will emerge as the Week 1 starter, but who will have started the most games by the […]

Steelers Stock Watch 2026 – DL Sebastian Joseph-Day

Player: DL Sebastian Joseph-Day Stock Value: Up Reasoning: Despite his somewhat low profile, Sebastian Joseph-Day may be a bigger contributor than many on the outside expect. At least, that’s what you might have heard from certain beat reporters. Defensive linemen haven’t done much yet this offseason, but he does add experienced, veteran depth. And outside […]

Two Pirates snubs in the 2026 MLB All-Star Game

The 2026 MLB All-Star Game is in Philadelphia this year. The Pittsburgh Pirates have had a solid season so far with a 46-45 record, but their All-Star representation didn’t show that. The Pirates have just one player headed to the 2026 All-Star Game on July 14 at Citizens Bank Park, in right-handed starting pitcher Paul […]

Are We Overestimating The Role Riley Nowakowski Will Have On Offense?

Are we overestimating the role Riley Nowakowski will play in the Steelers’ offense? For a fifth-round draft pick, it really seems some may be putting the cart before the horse with Riley Nowakowski. Drafted with the fullback classification, he fits, positionally, with Mike McCarthy’s offense and general philosophy. But he still has to, you know, […]

Report: Canucks & Penguins Linked to Blockbuster Trade

The Vancouver Canucks are still looking for a trade partner to deal Elias Pettersson, and it turns out, there could be one within the Eastern Conference. Multiple reports have surfaced connecting the Pittsburgh Penguins to the Canucks in a blockbuster deal that would involve Pettersson heading east. Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman recently commented on the trade possibility and certainly feels there's something brewing in Vancouver. Friedman sees the Penguins as a great fit for Pettersson, and ...

Free-Agent Anthony Mantha To Sign With 1 Of 3 Teams

The NHL's free-agent market may be paper thin with game changers, but that doesn't mean there isn't some top-six talent still available to sign. Free-agent winger Anthony Mantha is the 'best of the rest' at the moment, as the 33-goal scorer from last season is still without a contract. Last season, Mantha had a stellar bounce-back campaign with the Penguins, and despite not playing heavy minutes, was able to put up some big numbers, with 64 points in 81 games. Mantha averaged just 15:11 of ic...

Browns When it comes to the rookie season of Browns QB Shedeur Sanders, his father, Deion Sanders, gave an honest assessment, noting that the team needs to surround his son with good players for success in Cleveland. “I would have wanted him to perform a little better, but that’s not just an individual thing, that’s a team […] The post AFC Notes: Mark Andrews, Shedeur Sanders, Browns, Ravens, Steelers Roster Projection appeared first on NFLTradeRumors.co .

Analyst Wonders If Steelers Have ‘Most Physical Offense In The AFC’

The NFL has seen plenty of change in recent years. But a team capable of fielding a strong, physically dominant offense will always benefit, no matter the era. The Pittsburgh Steelers have certainly tried to inject physicality into their offense this offseason. Former NFL receiver Isaiah Stanback recently recognized their efforts. “I have to ask […]
