‘He’s Pouring Into Me’: Germie Bernard Says Aaron Rodgers Sees His ‘Potential’ As Rookie

The Pittsburgh Steelers are hoping second-round WR Germie Bernard can make an immediate impact in 2026. If history is any indication, that can be difficult with Aaron Rodgers as the quarterback. Even some of his most trusted targets, including Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, and Davante Adams, produced relatively quiet rookie seasons before blossoming into stars. […]

‘Don’t Need A Media Circus’: Vince Williams Wants Steelers To ‘Stay As Far Away’ From Brendan Sorsby As Possible

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback room looked set for 2026 after Aaron Rodgers rejoined them. In fact, it seems like they have too many signal callers, with the team unlikely to carry four on their 53-man roster. However, that isn’t stopping speculation that the Steelers could select quarterback Brendan Sorsby in the supplemental draft. While Sorsby […]

Depot Debate: Which Non-QB Can Pittsburgh Least Afford To Lose?

Continuing our Steelers Depot debate offseason series, who can the Pittsburgh Steelers least afford to lose to a long-term injury? Putting quarterback aside, the answers might be as varied as ever. Does T.J. Watt still take the top spot? Is it someone else defensively? Or is a name on offense more valuable? Ross McCorkle, Jake […]

One Fix Could Return The Steelers’ Defense To Top-10 Form

For years, Mike Tomlin preached the importance of winning the weighty downs. In 2025, that was an area where the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense consistently came up short. What should have been a strength on third-and-long—with one of the NFL’s highest-paid pass-rushing tandems—instead became a glaring weakness that contributed to the unit’s disappointing season. The numbers […]

With Mike McCarthy, A Top-10 Offense Is Within Pittsburgh’s Reach

Everybody knows Mike McCarthy’s reputation is built on offense, which is why so much attention has centered on what he can do for the Pittsburgh Steelers’ attack in 2026. But even with the excitement surrounding his arrival, his track record may still be getting undersold. Few coaches can match the sustained offensive success McCarthy has […]

Steelers 2026 Pre-Training Camp Roster Review — Offensive Tackle

The Steelers have left virtually no position on the roster untouched this offseason, and the offensive tackle group is no exception. Having experienced yet another one-and-done postseason exit, they are trying just about anything to achieve more favorable results. With bold swings via trade, shrewd free-agent signings, and a clear draft priority, the 2026 Steelers are […]

Will Troy Fautanu Develop Into A Pro Bowler At Left Tackle?

Will Troy Fautanu develop into a Pro Bowler at left tackle? The Steelers haven’t developed an offensive lineman into a Pro Bowler since Alejandro Villanueva; will Troy Fautanu be next? Now, Pittsburgh did have a recent Pro Bowler in Isaac Seumalo, but they earn no credit for developing him. Fautanu is a third-year former first-round […]

Former Steelers Linebacker Shares Story Of Being Lured To Cowboys

Courtesy of Jimmy Johnson, former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Vinson Smith learned a valuable lesson about the business of the NFL. Entering the league as an undrafted free agent in 1988 with the Atlanta Falcons, Smith caught on with the Steelers in 1989 and battled for a roster spot until suffering an injury during the preseason. […]

Top Ten Freakiest Athletes In Steelers History (9-10)

A new Pittsburgh Steelers series to pass the time this offseason. We’re ranking the top ten “freak” athletes in history. Choosing just ten is never easy for a franchise full of so much history and success. This list isn’t just about the fastest players, either. We’ve ranked those guys before. This focuses on strength, quickness, […]

Listen: The Terrible Take (Episode 1,934)

Steelers Tight End Room Praised As One Of Football’s Best

One of the new trends for NFL offenses is to utilize multiple tight ends. As teams try to create mismatches against defenders in coverage, versatile tight ends who take advantage of their size but are also capable blockers are especially valuable. Look no further than the 2026 NFL Draft, where a record 21 tight ends […]

Where Will Pittsburgh Pick In The Supplemental Draft?

The NFL’s Supplemental Draft isn’t widely understood. In part because it’s hardly existed. The last draft was held in 2023, and the last player selected in one occurred back in 2019 when the Arizona Cardinals nabbed S Jalen Thompson in the fifth round. Its basics are easy enough. Teams submit bids for the player, and […]

Kozora: This Steelers Roster Looks Pretty Darn Good

I can carry a cynical streak. As much as I attempt to be fair and optimistic, my glass tends to be closer to half empty than half full. Still, when it comes to the state of the Pittsburgh Steelers and their roster, things look about as good as they could. I have my quibbles. I […]

Drew Allar One Of 14 Draft Picks Yet To Sign

Training camp is five weeks away. The Pittsburgh Steelers rookie class is about to put on the pads, prepare for their first preseason game, and the evaluation of the group will earnestly begin. The large 10-man draft class is ready to go. Almost, anyway. Quarterback Drew Allar still hasn’t signed his rookie contract, making him […]

Study: Will The Pittsburgh Steelers’ Red Zone Offense Keep Improving?

Red zone play is an important factor in winning football games. The Pittsburgh Steelers struggled mightily in 2024 and made a notable improvement in 2025. That was of encouraging to see, particularly in the ultimate goal of scoring touchdowns. To illustrate this, here are red zone touchdown rates for NFL offenses in the 2024 and […]

The Steelers Have History With Supplemental Draft. Sort Of

The line you’ll hear over the next several weeks is the Pittsburgh Steelers have never selected a player in the Supplemental Draft. It would make QB Brendan Sorsby the first, should Pittsburgh go down that road. That is mostly true. In the Supplemental Draft as we know it today, the team hasn’t made a pick. […]

Pittsburgh’s UDFA Class Is Already Starting To Shrivel Up

Recent expectations for Pittsburgh Steelers undrafted free agents have been set low. There’s been the occasional hit with RB Jaylen Warren and CB James Pierre, but the number of competitive UDFAs to even hang around the roster for more than a few months has been low. Carried over from Kevin Colbert to Omar Khan, the […]

Deconstructing The Steelers’ 2026 Roster: Inside The Bubble

We’re continuing our Pittsburgh Steelers 2026 roster deconstruction, evaluating the odds each player makes the Week One roster. This is to make the 53-man roster, not the practice squad, and doesn’t take into account injuries shaking things up. Check out our previous installments at the links right below. Here, we’re focusing on players inside the […]
