The Pittsburgh Steelers have a loaded roster with talent at almost every position group. Currently, the quarterback room could be considered the most questionable. Starting signal-caller Kenny Pickett is heading into his third season in the NFL, with a lot on the table. Pickett will be fighting for his starting job, as his first two seasons with the Steelers have been underwhelming. Preseason Pickett caught a lot of eyes before the 2023 season started. The Steelers’ offense and Pickett seemed to have figured things out. The starting offense scored a touchdown on every drive they played. However, opening week hosting…

Without LeBron James, the Los Angeles Lakers needed someone to step up in a big way against the Utah Jazz and Rui Hachimura was up to the task. The forward had his best offensive game of his career, hitting 13-of-19 from the field and 6-of-8 from 3-point range to finish with a career-high 36 points in the Lakers’ 16-point win. Hachimura has had an up-and-down season after signing a new contract last summer. He showed what he was capable of during the Lakers’ postseason run last year, but head coach Darvin Ham has struggled to get that same level of…

All-Star Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis, long rumored to be amenable to making a return to Team USA ahead of the 2024 Olympics in Paris this summer, has offered some clarification on how he’s feeling about the competition at this stage of the 2023-24 NBA season, per Dave McMenamin of ESPN. “I told the committee if they ask me to go, I’ll go,” Davis said. Through 52 contests for the 30-26 Lakers, the nine-time All-Star, four-time All-NBA and four-time All-Defensive honoree out of Kentucky is averaging 24.9 points on 55.3% field goal shooting and 81% free throw shooting, 12.2…

According to NBA insider Ramona Shelburne of ESPN, the Golden State Warriors’ attempt to acquire LeBron James from the Los Angeles Lakers “was never, ever supposed” to leak. Shelburne and Adrian Wojnarowski broke the story of the Warriors trying to trade for LeBron. “Woj and I started working on it last Thursday night after the trade deadline,” Shelburne said on Zach Lowe’s podcast. “Everyone we called to check on it, I think their first reaction was, ‘How the hell did you hear about this? How the hell did you even get wind of it?’ Because like we use the word…

On Wednesday, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the Golden State Warriors attempted to trade for LeBron James at the Feb. 8 deadline. The news went viral. The notion of pairing James with Steph Curry had fans dreaming of what that partnership could have looked like. According to Ramona Shelburne, who was speaking to Zach Lowe on the “Lowe Post Podcast,” that news was never meant to leak to the press. “Everyone we called to check on it, I think their first reaction was, ‘How the hell did you hear about this?” Shelburne said. “How the hell did you even get…

Plenty expect the Pittsburgh Steelers to consider pursuing a veteran quarterback in the 2024 offseason. In actuality, the team is not interested in adding a signal-caller who expects to be the starter, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, even with apparent internal division over former first-round draft pick Kenny Pickett. “That would include Justin Fields and Kirk Cousins, and probably even Russell Wilson, who has a connection with the Steelers,” writes Gerry Dulac, downplaying the possibility of any big-name QB coming to Pittsburgh. “They are committed to giving Pickett a third season to see if he is the guy to do…

The Pittsburgh Steelers offseason has been abuzz with speculation, particularly regarding the quarterback position. However, recent developments in the free agency market have shifted attention to a hometown hero potentially returning to the Steel City. Omar Khan and the Steelers are actively exploring various options this offseason to bolster their roster. Among the key areas for enhancement is the secondary, where reinforcements are likely being sought. While boasting a stellar talent in Minkah Fitzpatrick at safety, there’s room for additional support. Notably, Patrick Peterson has voiced his interest in transitioning to safety full time for the 2024 season, provided the…

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Head Coach Mike Tomlin have shown a pattern of bringing in players who come from strong NFL bloodlines. The organization has consistently selected players in the draft who have current, or past, family ties with the NFL. In the 2023 NFL Draft, Pittsburgh selected Joey Porter Jr. with the 32nd overall pick, who is the son of Steelers great, Joey Porter Sr. Tomlin has a track record of loving these kinds of players, and there is a strong candidate in a position of need for Pittsburgh to continue this trend in the 2024 NFL Draft. Going…

Pro football surpassed pro baseball as America’s No. 1 pastime in the 1970s, and Terry Bradshaw was a big reason why. Bradshaw’s role in the Pittsburgh Steelers winning four Super Bowls helped make the NFL and the Super Bowl the immense successes they are today. Super Bowls were mostly duds until Super Bowl X, when Bradshaw’s bombs to Lynn Swann propelled Pittsburgh to a thrilling four-point win over the Cowboys. It was the first Super Bowl that lived up to the hype, which led to the following year’s Super Bowl surpassing Game 7 of the 1975 World Series as the…

The Pittsburgh Steelers have publicly addressed that they would like to see the return of Mason Rudolph to their team. But if he will, that is anyone’s best guess. It seems the team will offer Rudolph a contract, and from there, Rudolph will have to see what offers come in. ESPN’s Brooke Pryor still is not sure that Rudolph would want to return if Pickett has been so publicly backed as the starter for next season. “At this point, I think it’s kind of up in the air,” Pryor said recently on the Two on OSU podcast.”I’m interested to see…
