It’s been a familiar story for the Pittsburgh Steelers over the past few seasons. A strong defense bogged down by a lackluster offense as the team scratches and claws its way into the postseason. With the additions of QB Aaron Rodgers, WR DK Metcalf and TE Jonnu Smith, there’s hope that Pittsburgh’s offense will be […]
After signing a contract extension last September, Cam Heyward had one of his best seasons yet. He was named a first-team All-Pro at 35 years old. As a result, he’s currently looking for the Steelers to restructure his contract to give him more money this year. However, no deal is done yet, and the season […]
Several Steelers Depot readers discuss the Black and Gold every Monday night on the Clubhouse app. We made an early roster prediction just before 2025 Steelers training camp began. Since then, Omar Khan has executed several transactions and some were players injured during camp, prompting more changes. Here is the revised 53-man roster based on […]
Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cam Heyward made headlines last week when it was revealed he was holding in for more money. The Steelers gave Heyward a two-year extension last year, which is why it surprised many that he would be asking for more money so soon.
Heyward noted he wanted to be “valued,” as he is outside of the top 20 defensive tackles in terms of average annual salary. The All-Pro also hinted that he would consider sitting out regular season games if he didn’t get a pay raise.
Heyward had new teammates Jalen Ramsey and Darius Slay on the...
Going into this offseason, the Pittsburgh Steelers needed to upgrade at wide receiver. They didn’t waste much time doing that, trading for DK Metcalf. Metcalf has been in the league since 2019, and in that time, he’s made two Pro Bowls and been named a second-team All-Pro once. While he’s been a really good player, […]
After a competitive joint practice, the Pittsburgh Steelers will host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as they look to string together consecutive positive performances to begin the preseason. Once again, Head Coach Mike Tomlin is making the decision to withhold a myriad of starters in this one, which will allow some of the youth on the roster to get some more shine. The final result is truly inconsequential, but tracking the progress of the rookie class in particular is exciting for all parties involved. Here are five players worth keeping an eye on when they take the field tomorrow night.

Entering the 2025 season, there’s some concerns centered on the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive line as there’s a bit of the unknown at the tackle positions with Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu. But there are no concerns at the center position with second-year pro Zach Frazier. In fact, that’s arguably one of the strongest positions on […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense did some nice things through the air in the team’s 2025 preseason opener. As the headline suggests, I was curious to see how the encouraging scoring production stacked up around the league. Here’s a visual of total passing touchdowns and total red zone touchdowns across the NFL: What jumps out immediately […]

Jon Gruden has been around the block long enough to know count out Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers at your own peril. Believing in his supporting cast, however, is a bigger issue. “I never doubt a guy. I grew up with Bill Walsh and Bill Walsh used to say, ‘If the guys played great before, […]
He’s played 248 games in his career and has attempted 8,245 passes in regular-season games, so 41-year-old Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers might not need much work in the preseason to be ready for Week 1 of the 2025 season. But he’s in a new offensive system in Pittsburgh under coordinator Arthur Smith, and with […]
Mike Tomlin has been the Pittsburgh Steelers’ head coach since 2007, and he’s yet to end a season with a losing record. While Tomlin’s Steelers have had disappointing seasons, they have never hit rock bottom. That’s good, but it’s left some fans frustrated at Pittsburgh’s recent mediocrity. The Steelers haven’t won a playoff game since […]
