A classic Rodgers 4th-quarter drive...
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is having a standout performance against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night. Early in the fourth quarter, he has recorded 121 yards on 14 carries for a whopping 8.7 yards per carry. He has a long of 37 yards.
It’s Warren’s first 100-yard game since Week 11 of 2023. It’s his third 100-yard rushing game of his career.
This is the first time in his four-year career that he’s the Steelers’ lead back.

It appears 49ers backup quarterback Mac Jones will make his third straight start in place of Brock Purdy in Week 7. While Jones has been dealing with knee and oblique issues, he was able to practice in full on Thursday. With Purdy limited because of a nagging toe injury, head coach Kyle Shanahan said that Jones will “most likely” start against the Falcons on Sunday (via Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle).
After playing 31 of a possible 34 regular-season games from 2023-24, Purdy has already sat out four times this year. He started a season-opening win over...
Week 7 of the NFL and Fantasy Football season is here and it’s time to solidify fantasy lineups and make a plan for the latter half of the season. With the rollercoaster of emotions that comes with any year in the NFL, this year has been typically peculiar from a fantasy perspective in terms of preseason projections being completely off. One position that has seen quite a bit of change has been the kicker slot, and undervalued position that could guarantee 10.0 fantasy points on any given week.
No notable injuries to kickers occurred during Week 6 action. The recent...
He had been invisible in recent weeks, but in a big spot Thursday night in Cincinnati, Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth showed up in a big way, like he tends to do in Cincinnati. Facing a 3rd and 18 in the red zone and trailing 20-10 in the third quarter, Freiermuth shook free up […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers find themselves in a bit of a tough spot. Their Thursday Night Football game was supposed to be a relatively easy contest against the struggling Cincinnati Bengals. However, after the first half, it’s the Bengals who find themselves on top against the Steelers.
Why are the Steelers down against the Bengals? Well, costly mistakes have cost Pittsburgh multiple chances to go up against their division rivals. One such play happened in the first quarter. The Steelers seemed to try and pull some trickery on their opponents, running a flea-flicker to presumably confuse the defense and get a...
At 41 years old, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is still busy climbing the ladder of legends.
On Thursday, as the Steelers visited the Cincinnati Bengals at Paycor Stadium, Rodgers reached another milestone. Curiously, he surpassed Steelers icon Ben Roethlisberger, who will forever be synonymous with the team.
Rodgers went 13-of-19 for 118 yards in the first half against the Bengals, moving to the fifth spot for the most passing yards in NFL history.

CINCINNATI — As the Pittsburgh Steelers continued to try to solve how to stop Ja’Marr Chase, cornerback Joey Porter Jr. headed off the field and into the blue medical tent on the sideline during the third quarter.
Porter jogged back and forth in front of the trainers afterward, then sat down. Brandin Echols replaced him as Cincinnati marched closer to a field goal that made it a 10-point game nearly midway through the frame.
As the Cincinnati Bengals faced a fourth-and-1 on the Steelers’ 9-yard line, Chase had piled up 99 yards and a score on 11 receptions, including four...
Pittsburgh Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. suffered an injury in the third quarter of the team’s Week 7 game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Per the Prime broadcast, Porter was in the blue medical tent. The nature of his injury is unknown. Porter missed three games with a hamstring injury after getting hurt in Week 1 […]
The first injury report is out for the Seattle Seahawks’ Week 7 showdown with the Houston Texans, and it’s very encouraging.
Cornerback Riq Woolen appears to be near to a return after being a full participant in practice. He missed last week as a limited participant due to a concussion, so fully practicing to start the week should put him on track to return to the starting lineup.
Meanwhile, cornerback Devon Witherspoon and safety Julian Love were limited participants, which is better than the DNPs they had when they missed the Jacksonville Jaguars game. Having the three most important members...
With the Saints currently sitting at the bottom of the NFC, many of the teams veterans have been popular names in trade rumblings. The most notable of those players is Alvin Kamara, who recently stated his desire to stick in New Orleans for the rest of his career. In fact, the star running back even hinted that he’d retire instead of joining a new squad.

That report from this past weekend mentioned that general manager Mickey Loomis approached Kamara about a potential change of scenery. However, the running back told reporters today that...
The Pittsburgh Steelers had a nightmare second quarter at Paycor Stadium. After jumping out to a 10-0 lead, a pair of turnovers contributed to 17 unanswered points. With the Cincinnati Bengals getting the ball back after halftime, the Steelers are in a dire situation down 17-10. We have all seen this movie before on road […]
