The Steelers’ quarterback plans seemed well in place for the 2026 NFL season after signing Aaron Rodgers to a one-year deal and drafting former Penn State QB Drew Allar 76th overall. However, the Steelers have a rare opportunity staring them in the face. In a shocking turn of events, after months of legal battles and […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers have had an active offseason. Back in March, they added several notable external free agents, including Sebastian Joseph-Day, Jamel Dean, Jaquan Brisker, Rico Dowdle, and traded for Michael Pittman.

But if you’re a fan who enjoys summer scouting the college ranks, there are probably a few more passers worth keeping an eye on. Besides the household names such as Arch Manning and Dante […]
The Steelers made a whopping 10 picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, but there’s a chance not a single rookie is starting on offense or defense Week 1. That makes this yearly exercise of predicting which rookies will play the most particularly difficult. But it’s always a guessing game, isn’t it? Let’s dive in: 1. […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback room is an even balance of veteran presence and youthful signal-callers who have yet to take an NFL snap. One of those young quarterbacks is 2026 third-round pick Drew Allar. The Penn State product has spent his first few months in the NFL re-tooling his footwork with the help of head […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers have already taken care of business with two key members of their 2023 draft class, signing outside linebacker Nick Herbig to a four-year, $100 million extension and tight end Darnell Washington to a four-year extension that keeps him in Pittsburgh through the 2029 season.

While the Steelers have their eyes set on a Super Bowl, or at least, a playoff win, entering 2026, this offseason has still had more of a long term planning feel to it. Pittsburgh made 10 draft picks, none of whom are guaranteed to start right away, and has started work on extending its young […]
Despite having the NFL’s most expensive defensive unit last season, the Pittsburgh Steelers ranked 26th in total defense. Like any team, Pittsburgh dealt with injuries to key players like T.J.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have wrapped OTAs, meaning the next time they take the field will be in Latrobe for training camp on July 29. It will be the first camp for new head coach Mike McCarthy, as we get closer to seeing what this new era of Steelers football looks like on the field. One […]
