Emeka Egbuka is ruled out for Sunday’s NFC South showdown with the Carolina Panthers after entering concussion protocol and suffering a foot injury. The Buccaneers’ leading receiver (28 catches, 240 yards) had been trending upward, posting a 14‑yard rushing TD in Week 5 and a 40% target share versus Pittsburgh. His absence aligns with the return of quarterback Baker Mayfield, who is listed as questionable after a thumb dislocation but looks ready to start. With Egbuka sidelined, Chris Godwin Jr., Ted Hurst III and Tez Johnson will inherit most snaps; Godwin offers the safest floor in PPR formats despite limited production. The Panthers sit 3‑2 and rank 19th in pass defense, setting up a tough test for Tampa Bay’s 30th‑ranked passing attack.

Despite President Donald Trump's warning that the NFL should have postponed the International Series matchup, the league confirms the Saints‑vs‑Steelers game will proceed at Stade de France on Sunday. The decision comes amid violent student protests, widespread riots and a curfew in Paris, where over 1,500 shops were damaged and 2,400 arrests made last weekend. The Steelers have already canceled a fan event, and PSG's match was delayed, but the NFL says there is no safety concern. Trump said the situation in France is “trouble” and the league could have delayed the game.
In Week 7, rookie wideout Germie Bernard proves his worth for the Steelers, climbing to second among rookies with 24 catches and 17 coming in the last two games after injuries sidelined Michael Pittman Jr. and Roman Wilson. Bernard’s 11‑reception, 87‑yard, overtime‑game‑winning performance against Tampa Bay earned praise from quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who now trusts him as a primary target in a pass‑heavy offense (233 attempts, fifth‑most in the league). With his seamless route running and high‑school Alabama experience, Bernard could become a contender for Offensive Rookie of the Year and solidify his spot even after the injured receivers return.
The Steelers issue their final Week 7 injury report ahead of the matchup with the New Orleans Saints. Despite a canceled Friday practice in Paris due to weather, the update confirms that pass‑rusher T.J. Watt is cleared to play, while two other defenders are listed as questionable.

Mike McCarthy praises the Steelers' defensive line as the deepest he’s ever seen, but injuries to Derrick Harmon and Sebastian Joseph‑Day have put that depth to the test just seven weeks into the 2026 season. With Gabriel Rubio already debuting, the next potential call‑up is undrafted rookie defensive lineman Kevin Joby‑ti Jr., who the team says is “very excited” to join the roster.

Aaron Rodgers says the Steelers should have arrived in Paris earlier, noting the New Orleans Saints have been there since Monday. The Steelers flew in on a Thursday redeye and face the Saints on Friday, hoping to improve their 5-2 record and climb to the No. 3 AFC seed.

The Penguins used the session to debut their new blue “Hometown Remix” gear—powder‑blue stripes and dark helmets—ahead of the November 3 home game versus Vegas. The alternate jerseys, a nod to the team’s 1967‑68 inaugural crest and the franchise’s 60th anniversary, will appear ten times this season. Fans can expect the first blue look since 2013 at the upcoming game.
The Pirates face key free‑agent decisions as the 2027 offseason begins. Second baseman Brandon Lowe, a gold‑glove finalist who led Pittsburgh in RBIs and homers after a power‑poor 2025, will likely demand a big contract, forcing the front office to weigh his veteran leadership against budget limits. Reliever Gregory Soto, who posted a 3.63 ERA and 27.7% strikeout rate in 2026 and logged 16 saves, is also set to hit free agency, offering potential bullpen depth in the seventh and eighth innings. Veteran Kirby Yates retires, leaving only Lowe and Soto as the critical re‑sign targets.
Kyle Brandt says rookie wideout Germie Bernard has already shown more chemistry with quarterback Kenny Rodgers than newly‑acquired DK Metcalf, whose first season fell short of the high expectations set by his trade and contract extension. Brandt highlights Bernard’s rapid rapport and impact as the Steelers look to boost their offence early in the 2026 campaign.
The Steelers head to Paris for a Sunday showdown with the New Orleans Saints, aiming to boost their defense into the NFL's top five. After six weeks, Pittsburgh ranks sixth in defensive EPA per play (-0.10) and holds opponents to a 42.43% success rate. The Saints sit 27th defensively, allowing only 0.04 EPA per play, presenting a prime offensive opportunity, especially against their secondary. A win is crucial for division standing and to get the Steelers' offense back on rhythm. Highlights include T.J. Watt’s return from a calf injury, Sebastian Joseph‑Day heading to IR, and a nod from All‑Pro tackle to Alex Highsmith.
Jalen Ramsey is cementing his place in Steelers lore, helping the team rank No. 7 in the NFL (No. 2 in the AFC) in yards allowed (307.5 per game) as they prepare to face the New Orleans Saints in Paris. Despite a fractured right wrist, Ramsey posted two sacks in the 24‑17 win over Tampa Bay on Oct. 18 and has become a vocal leader, drawing lessons from Steelers legends like Troy Polamalu and Ryan Clark. Teammates such as Jaquan Brisker praise his relentless physicality and “steely resolve,” noting how he embodies the historic toughness of Pittsburgh’s defense. Ramsey’s impact on the secondary, paired with his mentorship from former greats, signals a new chapter in the Steelers’ storied defensive tradition.
