Steelers Afternoon Drive: Rodgers Renaissance, Highsmith Trade Talk?

Welcome to the Steelers Afternoon Drive, our new daily podcast featuring all the latest Steelers news and analysis.

Alan Saunders & Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers.

On today’s episode, we discuss if it’s possible for Aaron Rodgers to be better in 2026 than he was in 2025 and whether we could see the Steelers use more temp. We also dive into the idea of an Alex Highsmith to Carolina trade following the injury to Nic Scourton and if Payton Wilson could play the Divine Deablo role for Patrick Graham’s defense.

Let’s go for another Steelers Afternoon Drive and discuss all this!
