The Pittsburgh Steelers searched high and low throughout the offseason and leading up to the trade deadline for an answer at wide receiver behind DK Metcalf. But GM Omar Khan didn’t find a deal he liked, and ultimately the Steelers went the safe route, signing veteran Marquez Valdes-Scantling to their practice squad. Valdes-Scantling made sense […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers landed some needed cornerback depth when they signed free agent Asante Samuel Jr. to their practice squad on Nov. 11. The Steelers have not activated him for each of his first two possible games, but one beat writer thinks that may soon need to change. “[Samuel] is interesting because they’re banged up […]

With under 300 receiving yards in 11 games, it’s fair to say the Steelers are underutilizing expensive tight end Pat Freiermuth. Even though they paid him a handsome new contract, he is hardly a focal point in the passing game. And he should be, argues QB Mason Rudolph, who has played with him the longest. […]

The Steelers know Broderick Jones won’t play on Sunday. But they also won’t say whether Calvin Anderson or Andrus Peat will replace him.
