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.

Don’t be surprised if you keep seeing more of Germie Bernard playing the outside boundary receiver.

Film Room: Patrick Graham Shows Three More New Looks To Pittsburgh’s Defense
Last week, we broke down three new looks from defensive coordinator Patrick Graham. His over front tweak, putting inside linebackers on the edges, and dropping nine into coverage.

Steelers Coach Explains Kaleb Johnson’s Special Teams No-Show
Plenty has to go wrong for a third round draft pick not to make a roster in his second season. Unfortunately for RB Kaleb Johnson and the Pittsburgh Steelers, the early returns in second season have been just as nondescript and lackluster as his first. The possibility of not making the roster has increased since […]

Deshaun Watson Heard Browns’ Fans Boo Him. Here’s How He Responded.
Even if the Cleveland Browns aren’t ready to close the Deshaun Watson chapter, the fan base sure is. A fully guaranteed $230 million contract with essentially nothing in return isn’t a crowd pleaser. The Dawg Pound have let that displeasure known. During Saturday’s preseason game against the Buffalo Bills, the home Cleveland crowd booed Watson […]
Kaleb Johnson Pinpoints Where He Must Improve With ‘More Opportunities’
Kaleb Johnson played much more in the second preseason game, but what did he show, and what must he show? Although his confidence remains sky-high, he knows there are areas to improve. As he admits, it’s hard to show that without consistent reps, which also reflects the Steelers’ training camp usage at the running back […]
Willie Colon Raises One Area Of Concern For Steelers’ Offense
Even without some important starters playing, the Steelers’ offense has shown some potential—minus one area, Willie Colon suggests. Speaking about the offensive line, he raised concern about his former position at right tackle. While Max Iheanachor should take over in time, the currently active options have underwhelmed. “The left side of the line, I think […]
Should Drew Allar Start Steelers’ Final Preseason Game?
Should Drew Allar start the Steelers’ final preseason game? If the Steelers are only going to play their young quarterbacks this week, should Drew Allar start the first half this time?

‘Things I Talk To Him A Ton About’: Patrick Graham Outlines Specific Coaching Points For Yahya Black
By sheer size alone, Yahya Black is capable of giving any offensive lineman a difficult time one on one. But if size was the only factor to make a successful defensive lineman, Desmond Watson would have stuck around on an NFL roster for more than just his rookie season. Black has all the necessary traits […]
‘True Pro’ Rayshawn Jenkins Giving Steelers Safety In Numbers
Rayshawn Jenkins showed his value in the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Friday night preseason loss to the New York Jets. It’s usually not ideal when a team adds a 32-year-old free agent journeyman during training camp, but Jenkins, a hard-hitting safety, has proven to be a revelation in his limited sample size.
