The past few years haven’t been great for Mike Tomlin’s Pittsburgh Steelers. They haven’t won a playoff game since the 2016 season, and now, they’re in danger of having their first losing season since 2003. Tomlin has had a lot of success for the Steelers, picking up right where Bill Cowher left off. Former Steelers […]

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cam Heyward was fined $11,593 for taunting during the Buffalo Bills game last Sunday. It was Heyward’s first fine since 2015 (uniform violation).
Wide receiver DK Metcalf was also fined $14,491 for a violent gesture, while linebacker Payton Wilson was fined two separate times for a total of $14,132 for unnecessary roughness. One was for blocking after the whistle, the other for a blindside block, both on kickoff returns.
Cam Heyward was irate for most of the game, claiming that he was kneed in the stomach by quarterback Josh Allen.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf is 6-foot-3. Buffalo Bills cornerback Christian Benford is shorter. Pointing that out after a Steelers touchdown last week cost Metcalf nearly $15,000.
Metcalf was fined $14,491 by the NFL on Saturday after he celebrated Jaylen Warren’s 1-yard touchdown by holding his right hand to the ground in the direction of Benford — giving a signal that the Buffalo cornerback was “too small” in a celebration first popularized in the NBA.

The Pittsburgh Steelers play the Baltimore Ravens on the road on Sunday afternoon, and if you’re like me, you’re counting down the hours until the 1:00 PM/EST contest begins.

Along with elevating wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, the Pittsburgh Steelers have elevated offensive tackle Dylan Cook from the practice squad to the active/inactive roster for Sunday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium.
The Steelers are hindered at the offensive tackle position with starting left tackle Broderick Jones (neck) on inured reserve and Calvin Anderson suffering a knee injury.
Anderson was listed as limited at Wednesday’s practice with a knee injury. He had played during the team’s Week 13 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, but appeared in just one snap of special teams — the Steelers’...

After an embarrassing 26-7 loss to the Buffalo Bills last weekend in which the offense struggled to produce, the Steelers are responding by shaking up their wide receiver room. Aaron Rodgers will have one of his targets from his time in Green Bay back on the field with him on Sunday as the Steelers elevated wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling to the active roster.
In addition to the move at receiver, the Steelers also elevated offensive tackle Dylan Cook. He could provide some depth behind Andrus Peat, who will continue to fill in for Broderick Jones. Cook could also offer versatility...
Behind the Steel Curtain
Pittsburgh Steelers fans will finally get to see what Marquez Valdes-Scantling can do on Sunday. Mike Tomlin’s team elevated the eighth-year receiver to the active roster from the practice squad on Saturday, giving banged-up veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers another target when he takes on the Baltimore Ravens.
The Steelers signed Valdes-Scantling to their practice squad last month. The Green Bay Packers originally drafted him in the fifth round in 2018.
Valdes-Scantling played four years with Rodgers in Green Bay, setting career bests with 690 receiving yards and six touchdown grabs in 2020.
Before joining the Steelers, Valdes-Scantling spent time on...

The Pittsburgh Steelers are hoping to catch lightning in a bottle by bringing in 35-year-old WR Adam Thielen to a passing game that could use a major spark. Before he has even suited up for a game with Pittsburgh, there’s one indication that the early returns on Thielen’s integration into the offense are positive. Steelers […]
