Since joining the franchise as a seventh-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Pittsburgh Steelers offensive lineman Spencer Anderson has become a jack of all trades in the trenches. Of course, that’s nothing new for him, having played all five positions along the line during his time with the Maryland Terrapins. So far in Pittsburgh, […]

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cameron Heyward is very impressed to see one player back on the field.

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Cole Holcomb has come a long way since suffering a serious knee injury midway through the 2023 season. He saw his first NFL action since suffering the injury last weekend against the Jacksonville Jaguars, and he played well.

That has earned him the attention and respect of his teammates, including long-time Steelers team captain Cameron Heyward.

“Cole flew around. To think about the injury he sustained just a year ago, and to watch him battle back and put in the...

Protecting Aaron Rodgers will be a two-pronged effort for the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2025. The offensive line obviously plays a large role in that, but so does a serviceable running game. Even with a re-tooled RB room, the Steelers have taken a step back in that area through training camp and the first preseason game. […]

Aaron Rodgers landing in Pittsburgh might’ve been inevitable but Rodgers wasn’t going to make it official until he felt truly comfortable signing on the dotted line. That came in early June, nearly three months into free agency, after the NFL Draft and voluntary OTAs. While fans were left in the dark over his status and […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense is expected to be one of the best units in the NFL. The talent on that side of the ball is a large reason why people think Pittsburgh has any chance to compete this season. On offense, there are far less expectations. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith thinks the Steelers’ offense might […]

UNITY TWP., Pa. — General manager Omar Khan and Tomlin spent the offseason massively remaking the team’s roster, adding Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Jalen Ramsey, Jonnu Smith and Darius Slay while shipping out or letting go Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, Najee Harris, George Pickens and Minkah Fitzpatrick.

A lot of that process came down to Xs and Os. Rodgers figures to be a better fit for Arthur Smith’s offensive scheme than Wilson was. Ditto for rookie running back Kaleb Johnson compared to Harris. The additions of both Slay and Ramsey show a markedly increased emphasis on the team’s ability to...

There was a lot of hype and anticipation heading into the Pittsburgh Steelers’ preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars last Saturday night, the game set to give us our first look at the team’s rookie class inside a stadium. While some, like defensive lineman Yahya Black, outside linebacker Jack Sawyer and inside linebacker Carson Bruener, […]

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has lofty expectations for the defense this season.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have stars at every level of their defense, and that has head coach Mike Tomlin believing the group can be very special in 2025.

In fact, Tomlin recently admitted that he thinks the Steelers defense could turn out to be one of the best ever.

“We feel really good about the prospects of this group. We do,” Tomlin told the DVE Morning Show. “We’ve got to write that story. We’ve got enough talent, we’ve got enough schematics to do big, big things. When...

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it’s joint practices like Thursday’s scheduled against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Joint practices are largely seen as better environments for the team than preseason games, and head coach Mike Tomlin has said his starters will participate in Thursday’s event, despite not playing in the preseason opener last Saturday.

So why are they better, and if they’re so much better, why do we still have preseason games? Alan breaks...

Stop me if you’ve heard this before, but Broderick Jones could be the second most important player on the Steelers’ offense this year, behind only the quarterback he’s protecting. Thus, some found it troubling to hear of his early training camp struggles, and a subsequent soft-tissue injury that kept him out of action. Since returning, […]

If the Pittsburgh Steelers’ season plays out the way Conor Orr predicts, it’ll be a tough year for the Black and Gold. Though he has the team finishing with a 9-8 record, a slow start ultimately dooms the Steelers to a third-place finish in the AFC North. Predicting the game-by-game record for every team, Orr […]
