The Pittsburgh Steelers met informally with Pitt Panthers offensive lineman Matt Goncalves at the 2024 NFL Combine, Goncalves said on Saturday. A 6-foot-6, 330-pound lineman from Manorville, New York, Goncalves spent five seasons playing for Pitt, practicing right next to the Steelers at the South Side facility the teams share. Goncalves redshirted in 2019 and after that played a little bit of everywhere as the team’s sixth lineman in 2020, seeing time at left tackle, left guard, right tackle and as a tackle eligible. He moved into a starting role at right tackle midway through the 2021 season. In 2022,…

Your Los Angeles Lakers’ fan base is passionate. It’s not Philadelphia, New York, or Boston. It’s much better. The Los Angeles fan base is one of one, and you could especially say the same for Laker fans. Laker fans are as passionate about their team as fans from many other sports. The 17-time champions’ fan base is spoiled, but one thing is for sure— they love their team. You could feel it in the city, from other cities, online, and pretty much anywhere. It’s palpable, so much so that you only know it if you’re a Laker or a former…

Over the last 21 years, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has gone from an 18-year-old with unfathomable expectations to an instant superstar, a four-time MVP and NBA champion as well as a record-holder in virtually every category. This includes records that were seen as unbreakable, like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s all-time scoring record. And on Saturday, he crossed another milestone off his list by reaching the 40,000-point threshold. Although it came in a losing effort to the Denver Nuggets, reaching 40,000 points is a testament to just how long James has been atop the league. He was already one of the…

With clear issues around the roster, The Athletic’s John Hollinger broke down what he thinks your Los Angeles Lakers should do this offseason, highlighted by a major trade. Citing shooting as the team’s biggest issue (and validly so, LA is 28th in three-point frequency), Hollinger suggested the team go out and get Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks. One of the premier players in the league, Young has been amongst the league leaders in points and assists over the past few seasons despite playing with subpar supporting casts and dealing with a coaching carousel in Atlanta. In 2021, he led…

Last night, LeBron James became the first member of the career 40K point club in NBA history. The Los Angeles Lakers still are not able to come up with an answer for Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets, as Denver won 124-114. Last season, the Nuggets swept the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals. While the celebration for James’ impressive feat was shared by many, one Basketball Hall of Famer threw some shade at the 39-year-old prior to the accomplishment. On the podcast KG Certified, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce were discussing if Bronny James, LeBron’s son, would be able…

The Steelers seem to have hit a home run with CB Joey Porter Jr., the No. 32 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. However, they must find another reliable corner to pair with him on defense this offseason. Should Pittsburgh target four-time Pro Bowl CB Xavien Howard, who was informed last week by the Dolphins that he’ll released at the start of the new league year? The quick and easy answer is yes. Veteran cornerbacks Patrick Peterson and Levi Wallace were continually picked on in 2023, so finding another corner to put across Porter Jr. should be near the…

Pittsburgh Steelers General Manager Omar Khan knew that when he took over the position from Kevin Colbert, he would have to make it his own. Khan didn’t take long to make his mark, having a productive and aggressive 2023 offseason. With 2024 in his sights, Khan is looking to secure the quarterback spot for the foreseeable future. One of the bigger questions looming on the horizon is what role Kenny Pickett will play in 2024 and beyond. On Thursday at the 2024 NFL Combine, Khan spoke with the media. Most of his remarks were what everyone has come to expect…

Things move fast in the NFL, with winners at the trade deadline often pegged losers at the end of the season. That happened to the Philadelphia Egales this year when they traded for Kevin Byard, but released him earlier this week. And according to Evan Winter of A to Z Sports, Byard is an ideal fit in Pittsburgh: The Steelers don’t have any coaching connections, but there is a schematic fit. Pittsburgh wants to keep Minkah Fitzpatrick in centerfield to avoid more injuries, therefore, they need a guy who can play closer to the line. As mentioned earlier, Byard can…

The Pittsburgh Steelers need another cornerback alongside Joey Porter Jr., and Kansas City Chiefs star L’Jarius Sneed seems to make sense as an addition. And according to Steelers Now’s Nick Farabaugh, the team is interested in making a move. “The Pittsburgh Steelers have expressed interest in Kansas City Chiefs cornerback L’Jarius Sneed, a league source in Indianapolis told Steelers Now. Pittsburgh believes they need to upgrade their cornerback room, and the team sees Sneed as one of the top potential fits,” Farabaugh writes. The reported asking price for Sneed is a second-round pick, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The…

The Pittsburgh Steelers have multiple needs before free agency, but one of the harder needs to peg in how it will addressed throughout this offseason is the inside linebacker position. Kwon Alexander is not only a free agent but also suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon, while Cole Holcomb still has an uncertain time to return from his serious knee injury. And while talking to the media at the NFL Combine, general manager Omar Khan declared that inside linebacker was a position they had to address moving forward. “The inside linebacker position, we have Elandon Roberts under contract, Mark Robinson,” Khan…
