‘Feeling It A Bit:’ DeShon Elliott To Miss Practice Monday
Safety DeShon Elliott was the highest-graded Pittsburgh Steeler by Pro Football Focus in Friday’s 17-0 loss to the New York Jets.

With training camp in the rearview mirror and the end of the preseason coming quickly, there is still no real update on Joey Porter Jr.’s contract situation with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Roman Wilson Studies Antonio Brown’s Tape ‘All The Time’
The Pittsburgh Steelers have a long history of terrific wide receivers. John Stallworth and Lynn Swann are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Then you’ve got players like Hines Ward, a player whom Roman Wilson drew a lot of comparisons to after the Steelers drafted him. However, Wilson doesn’t study Hines Ward tape. He […]
‘What Were They Expecting?’: Kaboly Questions Kaden Wetjen’s WR Role On 53-Man Roster
When the Pittsburgh Steelers picked Iowa wide receiver and return specialist Kaden Wetjen in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, it raised some concerns considering he didn’t have much production as a receiver and projected as more of a special teams-only piece. That’s not exactly something you want to spend an early Day […]
‘Good To See The Physicality’: DeShon Elliott Impressed Patrick Graham In 2026 Debut
Cam Heyward acknowledged to DeShon Elliott recently that the Steelers’ defense missed him last year. Patrick Graham sees it, too.

Carney: Pittsburgh Steelers Final 53-Man Roster Prediction
The Pittsburgh Steelers still have one final preseason game to go, which will occur Thursday on the road against the Buffalo Bills at the new Highmark Stadium in Western New York, but the 53-man roster for the Black and Gold is starting to take shape.

Report: Browns Name Starting Quarterback To Open 2026 Season
The Cleveland Browns are naming Deshaun Watson their starting quarterback to open the regular season, per NFL insider Jordan Schultz.

Germie Bernard Reveals He’ll Wear Guardian Cap Entire Rookie Season
The NFL approved Guardian Caps for in-season use in 2024, but the padded helmet covers remain a relatively uncommon sight on Sundays. Pittsburgh Steelers rookie WR Germie Bernard plans to change that, revealing he will use one throughout his entire rookie season in an effort to reduce the force of head impacts. “I’m standing on […]
Watch: The Steelers’ Starting Offensive Line Was Better Than You Think
Bringing you guys another video today.

‘I Be Low-Key Scared:’ Young Steelers WRs Talk Playing With Aaron Rodgers
Throughout his illustrious career, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been notoriously hard on young wide receivers. There’s a high standard receivers have to meet to be on the field and see the football, from pre-snap hand signals and precise details in route running to overall trust built up. Time and time again, young receivers […]
Marczi: Steelers 53-Man Roster Prediction — Post-Second Preseason Game Edition
With the Steelers’ 17-0 preseason loss in the books, it’s time to update our 53-man roster predictions. My last roster prediction settled closer to reality, but this second preseason game will bring more fine-tuning. One thing you’ll note is that I still see only three quarterbacks making it, but I changed the quarterback. Offense (25) […]
Steelers ST Coach Defends Kaden Wetjen After Shaky Game
Without any more big plays on offense, Kaden Wetjen had only his return work on Friday—and he fumbled that part. Literally, as you know if you watched the Steelers’ second preseason game. On one punt, he bobbled the ball, and on another, he fumbled as a defender tackled him. Only the defense recovering the ball […]
Steelers Stock Watch 2026 – QB Will Howard
Player: QB Will Howard Stock Value: Down Reasoning: With two interceptions and zero touchdown passes Friday night, second-year QB Will Howard took a step back from his first preseason performance. While he doesn’t own full blame for either interception, he ultimately threw them. There are certainly some things to like about his game, but his […]
Steelers OC Admits There Are Still Questions Along Offensive Line
The Steelers’ biggest position battles entering this offseason were along the offensive line. And those battles aren’t necessarily over. While Spencer Anderson and Dylan Cook have run with the first-team unit throughout, they are still being contested.

Bengals’ Offensive Line Struggling Against More Than Just Its Own Improved Defense
The Bengals’ offensive line has struggled against Cincinnati’s improved defensive front. Turns out, it may not just be the defense. After two preseason games, the starting offensive line is looking like a problem in general. Not just because it is facing Dexter Lawrence in practice, but because it needs to improve. In Week 1 against […]
Does Kaden Wetjen Have As Safe A Roster Spot As Assumed?
Does Kaden Wetjen have as safe a roster spot as everyone assumes? The Steelers used a fourth-round pick on Kaden Wetjen, a return specialist, so of course he is a roster lock. Or is he? It’s not like he is the only player they are using on return roles, and Max Hurleman offers more offensively. […]

Robert Spears-Jennings Standing Out To Coaching Staff: ‘Fast, Physical, He’s Smart’
Rookie safety Robert Spears-Jennings is doing everything he can to force his way onto the Steelers’ 53-man roster. What began as an opportunity created by injuries in the secondary has turned into a legitimate roster push.

As Rookie Rubio Emerges, Steelers Happy With Deep Defensive Line Depth
When you think about the strength of the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2026, defensive line immediately jumps to mind. Defensive coordinator Patrick Graham would likely agree with that assessment as well.
