PITTSBURGH — While answering a reporter’s question on Thursday morning, Cam Heyward realized his typically booming voice was being stifled by the rap music obnoxiously pouring through the Pittsburgh Steelers’ locker room speakers.

“Hey, Burt!” Heyward said, calling out to the team’s senior director of communications, Burt Lauten, across the way. “Burt! Turn that down, please!”

A moment later, Lil Durk’s “Movement” trailed off and Heyward disapprovingly shook his head before continuing his brief weekly responsibility as the defense’s spokesperson.

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers.

On today’s episode, we discuss Alex Highsmith missing a second consecutive practice and Nick Herbig being in line to start against the Cincinnati Bengals.

We also touch on playing inverted Cover-2, different ways to use personnel and much more.

Let’s...

If Aaron Rodgers has multiple games like he did in Los Angeles on Sunday night, former Pittsburgh Steelers nose tackle Chris Hoke thinks the Steelers have to bench the four-time NFL MVP for Mason Rudolph.

“I think if Mason could go out there and run the offense very well, so possibly,” Hoke said on 93.7 The Fan. “If Aaron Rodgers plays like he did on Sunday night, absolutely. But Aaron has also played really well this year, so which Aaron will we get on Sunday? I think the next, two or three weeks is gonna tell. If he plays like...

Despite ups and downs this season, Pittsburgh Steelers defensive coordinator Teryl Austin likes the job linebacker Patrick Queen has done in the middle of the defense. Speaking to reporters Thursday, Austin offered high praise. “I think he’s played well,” Austin said via a team-issued transcript. “He’ll tell you, he’s pretty critical of himself in that […]

Aaron Rodgers had his worst outing with the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10. He looked like a 41-year-old quarterback past his prime. However, his whole body of work up to this point has been fine. Rodgers has had good moments with the Steelers. Despite that, former NFL offensive lineman Jeremiah Sirles believes that Pittsburgh should’ve […]

Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase gave an honest assessment on Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joey Porter Jr. ahead of Sunday’s game.

“Handsy, really handsy,” Chase said on Thursday when asked about Porter.

Chase avoided giving any bulletin board material when asked if he liked his matchup against Porter.

“I like any matchup with me,” Chase replied.

Chase reeled in a single-game career-high 16 passes for 161 yards in the Bengals’ 33-31 win over the Steelers on Oct. 16. Tee Higgins nearly eclipsed 100 receiving yards, as well. The Steelers got handsy and dealt with pass interference calls throughout the...

Broderick Jones isn’t anything special yet, but he’s showing some steady improvement as the 2025 season rolls along. Jones has been as reliable as it gets at left tackle, playing every single offensive snap this year. However, he finds himself on the injury report this week, dealing with a groin issue. Speaking after practice Thursday, […]

PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker Alex Highsmith missed his second straight practice on Thursday, putting his chances of suiting up for the team’s Week 11 game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday in jeopardy.

Highsmith also missed practice on Wednesday, with a pectoral injury. He was not listed in the injury rundown given by head coach Mike Tomlin on Tuesday, though Tomlin did say that some players dealing with “bumps and bruises” might miss practice time early in the week.

He played 72.6% of the team’s defensive snaps against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, and did not outwardly...

The WPIAL 1A semifinals will be played on Friday night at neutral sites (Hopewell and Fox Chapel). The 1A champion will be crowned at Acrisure Stadium in the first game of the day on November 22 and enter the State brackets the following week in the semifinals.
