Aaron Rodgers did pretty well in 2025, considering the circumstances in his first year with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He now heads into his second year in Pittsburgh, which will be the last of his NFL career as he confirmed earlier this week. And according to Warren Sharp, a predictive NFL analytics and visualized data analyst, […]

NFL analyst Ollie Connolly believes Pittsburgh Steelers’ All-Pro outside linebacker T.J. Watt‘s best days are behind him. Watt, who turns 32 in October, production has decreased significantly in the last two seasons.
“I think the decline is really real,” Connolly said on NFL Daily with Greg Rosenthal. “He is such a high-profile player and the big plays are so impactful, but he’s just become such a boom or bust player relying on one thing from one alignment and he still creates havoc and he can still create chaos. But when you start to see a player like that decline. I...
Thanks to T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith, and Nick Herbig, the Pittsburgh Steelers have arguably the best pass-rush group in football, at least when it comes to EDGE defenders. Those three terrorize opposing offenses and strike fear in quarterbacks and offensive coordinators weekly. Individually though, the three players appear to be in different parts of their […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers are rolling this offseason with an interesting quarterback room. Perhaps their most intriguing room in years. There are two veterans and two recent draft picks, and all four have their own reasons to stick on the roster going into the regular season. But one is going to miss the cut, according to […]

PITTSBURGH — With the Pittsburgh Steelers bringing Aaron Rodgers back, Mason Rudolph made a case for why he should be the team’s No. 2 quarterback.
“This is a veteran team,” Rudolph said on Wednesday after the Steelers’ OTAs practice. “We’re trying to win now. You don’t bring back Aaron Rodgers if you don’t want to win now.
“We want to make a playoff push. And I know that I can contribute with that veteran culture.”
Steelers offensive coordinator Brian Angelichio confirmed during his media availability on Tuesday that the team has a plan for getting all four quarterbacks reps.

This offseason has seen the Pittsburgh Steelers change a lot, with Mike Tomlin stepping down being the most shocking development. He was with the Steelers for almost 20 years, and he had a lot of success with them. However, the team’s ugly playoff win drought took its toll, and Tomlin decided a change was needed. […]

Colin Cowherd of FS1 expects Aaron Rodgers‘ last dance under Mike McCarthy to be a lot better than his 2025 campaign. McCarthy’s offense is known to put up points and the Steelers have bolstered their wide receiver corps with trading for Michael Pittman Jr. and selecting Germie Bernard in the second round.
“Terrible receiving corps, broken offensive culture,” Cowherd said on Thursday’s episode of The Herd. “He inherited a mess, a dysfunctional offensive culture. He’s going to be good this year. They got Michael Pittman. He’s going to be good, they’re going to be good. they’re going to vie for...
The Pittsburgh Steelers have their starting quarterback for this season in Aaron Rodgers. However, the rest of that room still needs to be sorted out. Mason Rudolph is the only other quarterback on Pittsburgh’s roster who’s played in an NFL game, but Drew Allar was a third-round pick this year, and the team is high […]

Enjoy watching Aaron Rodgers this season, because the Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback let it be known on Wednesday that it will be his last. All eyes will be on the four-time Associated Press NFL MVP, who will almost certainly be a first-ballot Pro Football Hall of Famer.
Former Cincinnati Bengals receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh, who notably once wiped his cleats with a beloved Terrible Towel, doesn’t think that it will be the send-off Rodgers is hoping for.
“His mark on football will forever be there, that imprint, because all these quarterbacks that I see in high school, college, they come out wanting...
Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle give the Pittsburgh Steelers a pair of starting-caliber running backs. Both will see plenty of action, but who will be true RB1? The Athletic Beat writer Mike DeFabo thinks it’ll be a photo finish, though he leans toward the new name who has the history with the head coach. “I […]
