Steelers OT Troy Fautanu Taking Max Iheanachor Under His Wing

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers’ first round didn’t go as planned during last month’s 2026 NFL Draft, as they watched the cross-state rival Philadelphia Eagles swoop in ahead of them and pluck now-former USC receiver Makai Lemon.

Mike McCarthy’s team is hoping they guy they took at No. 21 overall instead, Max Iheanachor, can take away the sting of embarrassment from that ordeal. Early on, according to third-year offensive tackle Troy Fautanu, arrows are pointing up.

“Max is asking all the right questions,” Fautanu said after Monday’s OTA practice. “Obviously, I’m still asking questions, too, only having a year under...

Insider Expects Steelers to Cut Ties with Will Howard

Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk thinks Will Howard‘s future with the Pittsburgh Steelers is on the brink of being over. It would not surprise him if Howard ends up being cut or traded in the crowded four-man quarterback room.

“I think Will Howard’s going to be the odd man out, unless someone gets injured,” Florio said on Monday’s episode of his Pro Football Talk podcast. “You’ve got four guys. You need four guys for now. Go ahead, give him an opportunity. The thing that helps Mason Rudolph is, if Aaron Rodgers gets injured, who do you want to step...

Antonio Brown goes off on JuJu Smith-Schuster in social media rant

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...

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.

Germie Bernard already impressing Steelers coaches at OTAs

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.
