Roman Wilson Used Benching As Chance To ‘Reflect’ And Finish Season Strong

No receiver likes being sent to the bench. Roman Wilson had no control over the decision to dress and play in the Pittsburgh Steelers offense to watching in street clothes. But he has the chance to end 2025 and begin the 2026 calendar on a far more positive note. Set to dress Sunday against the […]

Arthur Smith Enjoying His Time With OL Coach Pat Meyer

A quarterback and offensive coordinator must have a strong relationship. That much is obvious. The relationship between the coordinator and the offensive line coach can be just as important. Especially in a place like Pittsburgh, where historically the coordinator has served as the de facto “pass game” leader and the offensive line coach controls the […]

Aaron Rodgers addresses DK Metcalf altercation, calls for higher standard of fan conduct

Quarterback Aaron Rodgers spoke publicly for the first time about DK Metcalf’s recent altercation with a fan in Detroit, offering support for his wide receiver while also expressing disappointment in the incident and raising broader concerns about fan behavior in stadiums.

Metcalf was suspended two games after video surfaced of him swatting the face of a fan wearing a blue wig, who appeared to celebrate the encounter afterward. The suspension sidelines Metcalf for the team’s final two regular-season games against the Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens—matchups that could prove decisive in Pittsburgh’s playoff hopes.

Rodgers was firm in his stance...

SCB Steelers Hot Reads – Christmas Eve Edition

Hey Steelers Fans. Welcome to Christmas Eve!

The Kickoff

T.J. Watt practiced today. Although he was a ‘limited participant’ the fact that he was back in action is a real positive. Just over two weeks since surgery to repair his partially collapsed lung, Watt’s presence was a welcome sight. As to the question of when he will return, that’s still up in the air. I’m going to make the assumption that he won’t play this week and depending on the stakes for the home finale, he may not play until the postseason. I don’t have any inside information on...

Steelers release DT to make room for new WR

After signing veteran wide receiver Brandon Johnson to the practice squad Wednesday, the Steelers announced they released defensive tackle Kyler Baugh in a corresponding move.

Baugh has had a few stints with the Steelers, first joining the team’s practice squad in December of 2024. He’s yet to appear in a regular season NFL game. He went undrafted in 2024 after playing college football at the University of Minnesota.

Pittsburgh added Johnson, who has past experience with the Steelers and has played in 23 career games, following wide receiver D.K. Metcalf’s two-game suspension.
