Aaron Rodgers is back for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the hot takes are flying. For better or worse, during a slow time for NFL news, the Rodgers signing has given pundits a transaction to opine about long after most significant free agents have inked their deals. While the official signing comes as no surprise, it […]

In terms of talent, Antonio Brown is one of the 10 best players to ever put on a Steelers uniform. It’s what has come after that has really stained his legacy.
Since leaving the Steelers, a slew of legal issues and social media rants bashing his former team have led many to sour on the former All-Pro receiver. His latest tirade took aim at former teammate JuJu Smith-Schuster, saying that the Steelers tried to make the USC product a better player than Brown.
“And the guy they did wanna make better than me fumbled [our] whole season,” Brown said. “And...

The Pittsburgh Steelers rebuilt their wide receiver corps this offseason, trading for Michael Pittman Jr. and drafting Germie Bernard. Pittman figures to be the team’s No. 2 receiver beside DK Metcalf, while Bernard could fight for the No. 3 spot. It looks like the Steelers are set at wideout, but perhaps they could add another […]

PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Brian Angelichio confirmed during his media availability on Tuesday that the team has a plan for getting all four quarterbacks reps.
“You can never have enough quarterbacks,” Angelichio said. “With the system that’s in place here, it’s great that we have four quarterbacks. We have a plan on how all those guys are going to get reps.”
Angelichio raved about Aaron Rodgers being a mentor for Drew Allar, Will Howard and Mason Rudolph.
“Aaron’s such a great mentor … His feedback and the information he provides, you can’t beat that,” Angelichio said. “He is...
On the first day of OTAs, rookie Max Iheanachor opened up at right tackle. It was a logical fit given he spent his Arizona State career on that side. But the Pittsburgh Steelers don’t plan to play him exclusively at one position. No matter if you’re a first-round pick or end-of-the-roster reserve, flexibility is critical. […]

Even at 42 years old and diminished a bit from where he was at the peak of his first-ballot Hall of Fame career, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers still has one defining trait that shows up time and time again on a football field. The arm talent he possesses remains elite. Rodgers has attempted nearly […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers have lacked any depth at the wide receiver position for the last several years. With the likes of Van Jefferson, Scotty Miller, Allen Robinson, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling all getting notable snaps in recent memory, Pittsburgh’s receiving corps has rightfully been the butt of many jokes.
The Steelers finally addressed their lack of pass-catchers this offseason, trading for Michael Pittman and drafting Germie Bernard out of Alabama in the second round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Offensive coordinator Brian Angelichio was asked about Bernard on Tuesday and raved about his preparation.
“He has risen to that challenge with...

New additions at wide receiver and running back figure to play large roles in shaping the 2026 Pittsburgh Steelers offense. Meanwhile young players along the offensive line and at quarterback will pay dividends down the road if not right away. One position that wasn’t addressed this offseason but could still have a large impact on […]

Iowa’s Kaden Wetjen was the draft’s best return man. Frankly, Wetjen was one of college football’s top returners of the century. A dynamic threat on kicks and punts with six total scores, the Pittsburgh Steelers jumped on the chance to draft him early on Day 3. Now, Steelers special teams coordinator Danny Crossman knows he […]

Pittsburgh Steelers seventh-round draft pick Eli Heidenreich was a do-everything player during his time at the Naval Academy. From setting the program’s receiving record to rushing for more than 1,100 yards and consistently making plays in the clutch, Heidenreich prided himself on being a true football player. To make the 53-man roster with his hometown […]

Hey Steelers Fans. Welcome to Tuesday.
Reminder. It’s May. Predicting the record of the 2026 Pittsburgh Steelers right now is useless. For crying out loud they were on the practice field in shirts and shorts yesterday but already we have people making their guesses as to what the Steelers’ record will be. Some do this as clickbait. Some do it to get a reaction (good job!) and some do it just to encourage discussion. We can debate all day as to whether this team has more or less talent than last year and that would be fine....
Steel City Blitz
Aaron Rodgers inevitable return produces one short-term complication. With four quarterbacks on the roster, how will the team distribute a limited number of reps? All four have reasons to play. Rodgers is the starter. Will Howard missed last summer. Mason Rudolph needs snaps in a new offense. Drew Allar is the rookie working through a […]
