A former punter of the Pittsburgh Steelers is looking for a new home.

The Buffalo Bills have waived former Pittsburgh Steelers punter Cameron Johnston from their injured reserve list, according to multiple reports.

Johnston, 33, signed with the Bills on Sep. 9 but has been out since suffering a foot injury in Week 4.

The Steelers surprisingly released Johnston on NFL cutdown day as part of their final roster cuts. He had signed a three-year, $9 million free agent contract with Pittsburgh in 2024 but played just one game after suffering a serious knee injury in last year’s season opener...

For all of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ current offensive warts, there are bright spots. Running back Jaylen Warren has been excellent and should be involved more, especially on third downs.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it’s how the Pittsburgh defense can handle the star Cincinnati receivers.

The New York Giants have taken back one of the Pittsburgh Steelers wide receivers.

The New York Giants are signing wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins off the Pittsburgh Steelers practice squad, according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic.

Hodgins, 27, joined the Steelers practice squad on Sep. 16 as the team continued to search for wide receiver talent. However, he was never able to establish himself in Pittsburgh and now reunites with the Giants.

The 6-foot-4, 200-pound receiver was a sixth-round draft pick in the 2020 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills, who he spent the first three years (2020-22) of...

The Steelers tried but failed to trade for a wide receiver before the deadline, so Marquez Valdes-Scantling is their only hope. And they need to lean into that for anything to change, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette argues. He doesn’t know if MVS is going to help the team at all, but neither will […]

There’s no way to sugarcoat it. The Steelers are coming off another soul-crushing loss. Making matters worse, Sunday’s bout against the Chargers was another lopsided defeat on primetime. That means there were millions of eyes on the Steelers’ latest episode of dysfunction, and thus even more of the same old discussions and jokes around the water cooler and family get-togethers: “What’s gone wrong with the Steelers?”

If you’ve been reading our column, you already know where Read & React stands on this. There isn’t just one singular issue causing all of our grief, but rather a mixture of collective misfires...

Asante Samuel Jr. just had his first football practice in over a year, but he fully believes he’s ready to play for the Steelers on Sunday.
