Breer’s Cornerback Market Prediction Has Implications For Potential Joey Porter Jr. Contract
Joey Porter Jr. won’t be the highest-paid cornerback in the league when the dust settles, but any new deal that’s signed before his gets done will directly cost the Pittsburgh Steelers more money.

Beat Writer Explains Why Germie Bernard Can’t Be Compared To Past Steelers Rookie WRs
All eyes are on Germie Bernard this season, but perhaps they shouldn’t be. At least not yet, argues Ray Fittipaldo. While he expects the rookie second-round pick to contribute, he doesn’t anticipate a starting role. For that reason, he warns against comparing him to other rookie wide receivers of the recent past. In 2020, for […]
‘Would Love To See That Pat Freiermuth Back’: Max Starks Sees ‘Reemergence’ For Veteran TE
After a down season largely due to usage, is Pat Freiermuth in for a big bounce-back season? That’s what Max Starks believes the Steelers need.

Fittipaldo Questions Whether Aaron Rodgers Will Have Better Connection With Receivers In 2026
Key to a better year for Aaron Rodgers is a better rapport with his targets. Ray Fittipaldo is skeptical that we will see that this year.

Bengals Beat Writer Sees ‘Another Move Coming’ To Revamp Defense
Despite the moves they’ve already made this offseason, veteran Bengals beat writer Paul Dehner Jr. believes they’re not done. They made one of the splashiest trades of the year, giving up their 10th-overall draft pick for DT Dexter Lawrence. But even with the additions already in the bag, they apparently need more. “All of those […]
How Much Better Are Steelers At Safety Compared To Last Year?
How much better off are the Steelers at safety compared to last year? Partly their own doing, partly untimely misfortune, the Steelers found themselves in a bad spot at safety last year.

Steelers Rookie Germie Bernard Reveals Meaning Behind No. 17 Jersey
Germie Bernard’s first NFL jersey number comes with a fitting connection. The Steelers rookie chose No. 17 in honor of his favorite receiver, Davante Adams.

Kaboly Sees ‘Better Coaches’ On McCarthy’s New Steelers Staff: ‘In A Better Situation’
Mike Tomlin’s resignation made it inevitable, but the Steelers have a nearly entirely new coaching staff. A better one, Mark Kaboly argues.

Steelers ‘Would Be Smart’ To ‘Take Some Snaps’ From T.J. Watt, Beat Writer Argues
Is a less-is-more approach with T.J. Watt the best for both the player and the Steelers? Ray Fittipaldo thinks so, espousing that theory this week. Going into his 10th season, Watt certainly has some wear and tear at this juncture. But with Pittsburgh boasting a deep outside linebacker room, should they be leaning more on […]
