SCB Steelers Hot Reads – Soft Tissue and the Latest From Camp

Hey Steelers Fans. Welcome to Monday!

The Kickoff

Soft tissue injuries… Stop me if you’ve heard about these before. For whatever reason, they seem to be more common among the Pittsburgh Steelers than other teams. I don’t have the stats on that but the optics are hard to ignore. Broderick Jones has been battling a groin injury and he was joined with the same injury by Alex Highsmith.

At this time, we don’t know how severe Highsmith’s injury is but there is a serious concern here. It’s the third time he’s dealt with this. He did the same thing...

‘Necessity Forces You To Adapt’: Arthur Smith Embraces Adjusting Offensive Scheme To Personnel

Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith has a vision of what an offense should look like. It’s built around the running game, utilizes a lot of play-action passing, and has guys who are physical at the point of contact, wearing defenders down. That’s his ideal setup. But it’s not always been that way for him […]

DK Metcalf: This Steelers Defense the Best He’s Ever Seen

DK Metcalf: This Steelers Defense the Best He’s Ever Seen

New Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf is already impressed with what he’s seen on the other side of the ball in Pittsburgh.

“I think they’re the best defense I’ve ever seen,” Metcalf said during a recent interview with NFL Network’s Steve Smith and Ian Rapoport.

It’s a bold claim from a player who spent the first five years of his career in Seattle, regularly practicing against competitive defensive units. But based on the talent the Steelers have assembled, Metcalf’s praise may be more truth than exaggeration.

Pittsburgh’s defense has undergone a major transformation this offseason. The team used its first-round...
