The Pittsburgh Steelers overhauled its inside linebacker room before the 2023 season after Devin Bush Jr., Robert Spillane, Myles Jack, and Mark Robinson failed to provide enough splash plays in 2022. Cole Holcomb and Elandon Roberts entered the mix during the initial free agency period, and Kwon Alexander was brought in later to fill out the starting roster. Things were going well for the unit until injuries to Holcomb and Alexander in successive weeks landed them on the shelf for the rest of the season. Pittsburgh tried to adjust by bringing in some veterans, like Jack back, to soften the…

One of the big financial decisions the Pittsburgh Steelers need to make this offseason is whether or not to exercise the fifth-year option for running back Najee Harris. This would add an extra year to his current contract and pay him something in the neighborhood of $6.6 million in 2025. The last time the Steelers had to make such a decision, they opted not to exercise the fifth-year option on linebacker Devin Bush. This, after Bush proved to be a wasted pick for the Steelers and a bust. But for Harris, the decision is an easy one as Harris has…

It’ll be a dozen years next month since legendary Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward called it a career. And his former team remains without a Super Bowl since. The “standard” of the Steelers was often brought into question during the 2023 season as it seemed the younger generation of players on the roster didn’t understand it, nor were they embodying it. “The standard in Pittsburgh is all about winning Super Bowls,” Ward told The Schmo during Super Bowl week. “We’re very blessed. We won six Super Bowls in our organization.” “… But we haven’t won in a while, so…

The Steelers announced several additions to their coaching staff on Friday, naming Tom Arth as the quarterbacks coach, Zach Azzanni as the wide receivers coach and Mateo Kambui as an offensive assistant. Arth spent the last two seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers where he was the team’s passing game specialist. During his time with the Chargers, he was part of a staff that helped the offense rank fifth in passing offense and eleventh in total offense during his tenure. He also helped quarterback Justin Herbert continue to set NFL records. Prior to joining the Chargers, he spent nine seasons…

With Warriors legend Klay Thompson all but certain to test free agency this summer, teams across the league are already preparing to make a push for the 5x All-Star. According to Shams Charania, both Florida teams and both Los Angeles teams will be involved in the pursuit. “I expect him to test the marketplace,” said Charania on the Pat McAfee show. “I would expect both Florida teams, both LA teams, potentially a couple East Coast teams [to show interest]. As of right now, unless there’s a miracle extension, he’s gonna test the marketplace and I think the Warriors have understood…

One of the most intriguing reports to come out of the NBA trade deadline was the Golden State Warriors calling the Los Angeles Lakers to inquire about LeBron James. The Warriors were hoping for a chance to pair the 39-year-old superstar with Stephen Curry to make one final run at an NBA title before James hits free agency this summer. The Lakers, unsurprisingly, rebuffed their offers. Of course, they checked with James before doing so, as he is perhaps the only player in the NBA who could have that significant of a say in their own trade rumors. Lakers governor…

The Pittsburgh Steelers released punter Pressley Harvin III on Monday, and is now looking for a new spot after the team that drafted him moved on. Pittsburgh’s seventh-round draft pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, Harvin struggled to maintain consistency and now has been released by the team. In his post-season debriefing, Mike Tomlin mentioned that Harvin had not met their standards. “You know, I’ll acknowledge that Pressley (Harvin) wasn’t consistent enough, particularly down the stretch,” Tomlin said But Harvin came into the league as a highly-touted player. He won the Ray Guy Award at Georgia Tech and seemed destined…

The Denver Broncos could very well move on from quarterback Russell Wilson following a season in which he was benched in favor of Jarrett Stidham for the final two games of the season. Should Denver cut its losses with Wilson, the 35-year-old will have a decent amount of suitors looking for a veteran signal-caller. The Pittsburgh Steelers fall into that camp, with head coach Mike Tomlin saying last month that Kenny Pickett will be “challenged from a competition perspective moving forward.” Whether or not the Steelers will have interest in Wilson remains to be seen, but as of now, they…

Tell me if you have heard this one before — the Pittsburgh Steelers should make a trade and land Justin Fields. Well, it’s only been said about twenty times over the last week, and it seems like most people are on board with the idea. But it still does not match up with the comments the team made early this offseason. Hwoever, Mike Tannenbaum made that projection on Get Up, and thinks that Fields makes a ton of sense with the Steelers to upgrade their quarterback room. “If you look at their new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith and all the…

This offseason, the Pittsburgh Steelers find themselves at a critical juncture, tasked with making pivotal decisions regarding key players. Among these decisions looms the fate of seasoned veteran Patrick Peterson and his contract. Peterson, a seasoned defensive back, has expressed his desire to conclude his illustrious career in the black and gold of Pittsburgh. Yet, he acknowledges that the final decision rests with the Steelers’ organization. During a recent episode of his podcast All Things Covered, hosted by Bryant McFadden and Peterson himself, the topic of Peterson’s future came to the forefront. When queried about his intentions to continue playing,…
