Kyle Brandt of NFL Network named Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Darnell Washington as the Week 11 Angry Runs winner for his viral play against the Cincinnati Bengals when he bulldozed through three defenders.
“Way too big of a dude to be running like that,” Brandt said. “This was the Godfather trilogy of runs, except he stuck the landing on part three.”
Washington was nominated three times for his 31-yard catch and run, one time for each of the Bengals defenders he demolished. It’s the first time one player swept the finalist nominations.
“There are some guys in the league that...
The Pittsburgh Steelers have brought back a familiar face to their offense.
The Pittsburgh Steelers have re-signed quarterback/wide receiver John Rhys Plumlee to their practice squad and have released safety Jack Henderson as a corresponding transaction, according to multiple reports.
Plumlee, 24, first joined the Steelers as an undrafted free agent out of the 2024 NFL Draft. He served as the team’s fourth quarterback during training camp and the preseason while also being experimented with at receiver, kick returner and punt returner before being released that August.
Since then, Plumlee has bounced around the league, spending time with the Jacksonville...
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ secondary had a rough start to this year. However, it’s looked better recently. One of the biggest reasons for that is that Jalen Ramsey is playing safety now. He was moving around more before that, splitting time between corner and safety. While he’s been a corner throughout the rest of his NFL […]

Between Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph, the Pittsburgh Steelers have a few days to make a decision at quarterback. The former is the better option and left last Sunday’s win with an injury. And the latter is the backup for a reason, but he operated the offense quite well in relief of Rodgers. Another potential […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers have a quarterback decision on their hands. Health is a question this week after Aaron Rodgers fractured his left wrist during Sunday’s win over Cincinnati.

The Steelers adjusted their practice squad on Tuesday, signing wide receiver John Rhys Plumlee and releasing safety Jack Henderson to make room.
This will mark Plumlee’s third stint with the Steelers. He spent the summer with the team as an undrafted free agent in 2024 but didn’t make the initial roster or practice squad, spending the season with the Jaguars and Seahawks. Plumlee was waived by Seattle ahead of the 2025 seasons, signing back with the Steelers practice squad in October.
Pittsburgh released Plumlee again on Nov. 4. Now, he finds himself back in Pittsburgh.
To make room for Plumlee,...
Behind the Steel Curtain
The Pittsburgh Steelers have released an updated depth chart ahead of their Week 12 game against the Chicago Bears. There aren’t many changes on this chart, which is most notable at one position. Darius Slay remains the starting outside corner opposite Joey Porter Jr. On one hand, I understand this because he’s being paid $10 […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers aren’t strangers to dealing with extra drama when they play the Cincinnati Bengals. Games between those two teams are often physical. Sometimes, that includes extracurricular activities. Take Ja’Marr Chase spitting in Jalen Ramsey’s face, for example. Now, Chase has been suspended one game for his actions. However, he’s appealing that ruling. Mike […]
