New Steelers Assistant Frank Cignetti Jr. Describes His Coaching Philosophy
Frank Cignetti Jr., a second-generation coach who can trace his career back to the 80s, is finally with the Steelers. Part of fellow Pittsburgh native Mike McCarthy’s inaugural coaching staff, he is back in the NFL as a senior offensive assistant. Having last coached—under McCarthy—at the professional level in 2018, he explained his coaching style. […]
Three (More) Forgotten Steelers On The Roster
In April, we wrote about three “forgotten” Pittsburgh Steelers on the roster receiving very little attention: CB Cory Trice Jr., CB Donte Kent, and DL Logan Lee. All had valid reasons for being shuffled to the back of everyone’s mind, and one is no longer with the team. The Steelers cut Trice after a failed […]
Curt Cignetti Offers NFL Endorsement Of QB Brendan Sorsby. Why That Could Matter To The Steelers.
Over the next month, NFL teams must determine their feelings about QB Brendan Sorsby – the player and the person. A potential first-round talent marred in a gambling scandal that has him headed to the league, pending Roger Goodell’s approval, through July’s supplemental draft. Each organization will form its own opinions. Curt Cignetti, college football’s […]
‘He’s Ready’: Dylan Cook Vouches For ‘Quick Learner’ Max Iheanachor
If Steelers rookie Max Iheanachor wins a starting job out of the gate, it doesn’t seem Dylan Cook will be surprised. Ostensibly, the two are competing to be Pittsburgh’s right tackle. Previously occupied by Broderick Jones, and then Troy Fautanu, the position is currently open. Fautanu is now at left tackle, and Jones is rehabbing […]
Steelers Stock Watch 2026 – OLB Nick Herbig
Player: OLB Nick Herbig Stock Value: Up Reasoning: Somewhat surprisingly, Nick Herbig locked in for four more years with the Steelers on a $100 million contract extension. Perhaps influenced by his brother’s injury, he opted to take the money now rather than play another season on a rookie contract. More relevant, the contract makes it […]
Beat Writer Sees 2027 As ‘The Right Time To Move One’ Of Steelers’ Pass Rushers – And Has A Preference
The Steelers have three powerful pass rushers signed to big deals for 2026, but should they carry them into 2027? Mike DeFabo believes that, while it makes sense to hold onto them now, next year makes sense to recoup value. And while he sees the sense in Alex Highsmith, he has another potential trade move […]
Browns HC Comfortable Not Having Answer At Quarterback Because ‘Both Can Start And Play Winning Football’
The Browns still don’t have a starting quarterback in place between Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders. They’re just too good, apparently. While HC Todd Monken previously said he’d like to have a starter in place by now, he exits the spring content without having an answer yet. And he insists that’s because he has seen […]
Will Dylan Cook Be Steelers’ Opening-Day RT Over Max Iheanachor (And Broderick Jones)?
Will Dylan Cook be the Steelers’ opening-day starting tackle over Max Iheanachor (and Broderick Jones)? While Dylan Cook ran with the first-team offense during the spring, does he have the edge to start the season? He is in at least a two-way competition for the Steelers’ right tackle job—if not a three-way competition. At the […]

Palazzolo Predicts Steelers Select Brendan Sorsby In Third Round Of Supplemental Draft
It felt like the Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback drama was over after Aaron Rodgers returned to the team. However, Brendan Sorsby applying for the supplemental draft has created quite a stir, and Pittsburgh has been suggested as a landing spot for him. He had a chance to be one of the top quarterbacks in the 2027 […]
‘We’ve Forgotten How Good He Was’: Vince Williams Thinks Pat Freiermuth Will ‘Remind’ People How Skilled He Is
Arthur Smith helped the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense improve slightly. However, his offense still had many issues, especially in how it deployed personnel at times. Pat Freiermuth is the biggest example of a player hindered by Smith’s scheme. While he had been a consistent weapon in Pittsburgh, he was used less often in 2025. There didn’t […]

‘One Last Chance’: Rich Eisen Picks Aaron Rodgers As QB Under Most Pressure
Aaron Rodgers is one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history. He’s a four-time MVP, Super Bowl champion, and future inductee into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. However, his career isn’t over yet.

‘Have No Real Plan’: Cowherd Argues Steelers’ Franchise QB Isn’t On The Roster
For teams like the Pittsburgh Steelers, who never pick in the top of the first round, it can be hard to find a franchise QB. It’s a problem the Steelers have tried to solve since Ben Roethlisberger retired. Heading into 2026, they might have their most intriguing youth in the room since Roethlisberger played his […]

Welcome back to your weekly Pittsburgh Steelers mailbag. As always, we’re here for the next hour to answer whatever is on your mind. To your questions! Jim Winiarski: On one hand the Steelers tend to take a high moral ground but have had questionable times with Ben, Antonio and I have a really hard time with […]
Analyst Describes Why Steelers Might Be ‘The Right Spot’ For Brendan Sorsby: ‘Work On The Person’
There are plenty of NFL teams that might fancy Brendan Sorsby in this year’s supplemental draft. Teams with barren quarterback rooms, a lack of youth, or a need for a backup could all show interest. But for Sorsby’s long-term interests, one analyst believes the Steelers might be the best fit for him. “The right spot […]
Was ‘Trending In The Right Direction:’ Kevin Colbert Defends Drafting Kenny Pickett
Two things can be true at once. Kevin Colbert helped build some of the most successful Pittsburgh Steelers teams in franchise history, including two Super Bowl-championship ones and rosters loaded with Hall of Fame talent. But his final years as general manager contributed to a hole that Pittsburgh is still working to climb out of […]
History Says DK Metcalf Is Nearly Guaranteed To Have 1,000-Yard Season
Yesterday, we outlined three Pittsburgh Steelers in need of a bounce back season. Wide receiver DK Metcalf wasn’t on the list, but he certainly would qualify. Traded from Seattle and given a historically large contract, Metcalf’s first year was underwhelming: 59 receptions, 850 yards, and six touchdowns with the end of his season marred by […]
Labriola Explains Kaleb Johnson’s ‘Certain Path To A Roster Spot’
The Pittsburgh Steelers used a third-round pick on Kaleb Johnson back in 2025. Shortly after coming to Pittsburgh, the rookie was met with high expectations. Even in backfield with Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell, some thought he might seize the starting role during his rookie season. For many reasons, that didn’t happen. Johnson was shut […]
CBS Sports Outlines Steelers’ Best-, Worst-Case Scenarios In 2026
Based on how the Pittsburgh Steelers have conducted business this offseason under first-year head coach Mike McCarthy, there’s a belief internally that they are still in a competitive window and can compete for a Super Bowl.

Steelers 2026 Pre-Training Camp Roster Review — Running Back
The Steelers have left virtually no position on the roster untouched this offseason, and the running back group is no exception. Having experienced yet another one-and-done postseason exit, they are trying just about anything to achieve more favorable results.

Analyst Discusses His ‘One Concern’ With The Steelers’ Defense
The Steelers have made key investments to bolster their defense this offseason, but one analyst still has a particular concern. Specifically, it centers on the safeties and how the team will deploy them—and whether it will work. DeShon Elliott is returning from a season-ending injury a year ago. Pittsburgh also added former second-round pick Jaquan […]
ESPN Analyst Identifies One ‘Final’ Offseason Move Steelers Must Make
It has been a busy offseason for Pittsburgh Steelers GM Omar Khan. Not only did he hire a new head coach for the first time in his career, he also reshaped the roster in a major way, turning things over during new head coach Mike McCarthy’s first year. More than 30 new players joined the […]
