  • Steelers' DK Metcalf: Expected to be ready for Week 1

    Metcalf (undisclosed) is expected to be ready for Week 1 against the Falcons, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Metcalf has dealt with an undisclosed injury for much of training camp, but he returned to practice last week and is expected to be ready when the games count. He'll be looking for a bounce-back 2026 season after he produced just 59 catches for 850 yards and six touchdowns across 15 regular-season contests last season, his first season with the Steelers. Metcalf is facing added competition for targets in the form of Michael Pittman (hamstring), who also is expected to be ready for the Week 1 opener.

  • Steelers' DK Metcalf: Agrees to restructured contract

    Metcalf (undisclosed) has agreed to a restructured contract with the Steelers, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Metcalf signed a four-year, $132 million contract with the Steelers in March of 2025, and the revamp of the deal coverts a portion of his base salary into a signing bonus while opening up "nearly $18 million" in 2026 cap space for Pittsburgh. Metcalf has been slowed by an unspecified injury during training camp, but he practiced Monday and will be aiming to bounce back after finishing with a career-low 850 receiving yards over 15 regular-season games in 2025.

  • Steelers' DK Metcalf: Returns to practice Monday

    Metcalf (undisclosed) returned to practice Monday after having been sidelined since Aug. 8, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

    Monday was a notable day for the Steelers with both Metcalf and Michael Pittman (ankle) getting back on the field. Metcalf appears to have put his multi-week absence behind him and will have time to ramp back up before the season starts Sunday, Sept.13 against the Falcons.

  • Steelers' DK Metcalf: Says he's fine, no long-term concern

    Metcalf (undisclosed) said Wednesday that he's "fine" and isn't concerned about his status for Week 1, Nick Farabaugh of PennLive.com reports.

    Metcalf has missed more than a week of practice due to an undisclosed injury, a stretch that included the Steelers' preseason opener against the Packers last Thursday. At the same time, fellow WR Michael Pittman also has been sidelined with a hamstring issue. Pittsburgh likely will continue to take a cautious approach with its top two pass catchers with the Sept. 13 Week 1 matchup with the Falcons in mind.

  • Steelers' DK Metcalf: Not expected to practice this week

    Head coach Mike McCarthy said Saturday that Metcalf (undisclosed) will be "hard pressed to work this week" in training camp practice, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

    Metcalf is working through an unspecified injury, and he joined fellow wideout Michael Pittman (leg) on the sidelines for the Steelers' preseason opener against the Packers on Thursday. It looks like both Metcalf and Pittman are facing uphill battles to return to practice this week, making it unlikely that either of them suit up for this Friday's exhibition contest against the Jets.

  • Steelers' DK Metcalf: Not in uniform for preseason opener

    Metcalf (undisclosed) isn't in uniform for Thursday's preseason opener against the Packers, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    The same applies to fellow WR Michael Pittman (leg), with Steelers playing it safe with their top two wideouts, as they've been managing injuries of late. Metcalf's next chance to see game action will arrive Aug. 21 against the Jets, and his absence, along with Pittman's on Thursday, will open up opportunities for those competing for depth-chart slotting and/or roster spots to see added snaps versus Green Bay.
