Top Steelers News

  • Steelers' Germie Bernard: Five catches in blowout win

    Bernard caught all five of his targets for 30 yards during Sunday's 27-6 win against Cleveland.

    Bernard led the team in catches, reeling in multiple passes for the fifth straight week and sixth time overall this year. The wide receiver has built a strong rapport with starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers, but it's unclear what Bernard's workload will look like after the Steelers have a chance to regroup and potentially acquire another pass catcher during the team's bye week in Week 9.

  • Steelers' Pat Freiermuth: Scores goal-line rushing TD in win

    Freiermuth caught both of his targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 27-6 win over the Browns. He added one rushing attempt for a one-yard touchdown.

    With time expiring in the second quarter, Freiermuth took a direct snap and punched in a one-yard rushing score to put the Steelers up 20-6 headed into halftime. The tight end entered the season with zero career carries but now has four through eight games, turning them into five yards and a touchdown. As a receiver, Freiermuth has been held to exactly two catches in each of the last three games and has yet to hit 50 yards in any game this season. He's a touchdown-or-bust fantasy bet with the Steelers headed into their bye week.

  • Steelers' Darnell Washington: Leads team in receiving in victory

    Washington caught three of five targets for 94 yards during Sunday's 27-6 win over the Browns.

    Washington led the team in receiving yards while finishing tied for second on the team in targets with wide receiver Germie Bernard. The tight end's biggest moment of the game came in the third quarter when he reeled in a short pass from Aaron Rodgers and took off for a 58-yard gain. Washington has now reeled in 19 of 28 targets for 254 yards and three touchdowns over eight contests to open the 2026 regular season.

  • Steelers' Rico Dowdle: Rushing TD in big win

    Dowdle rushed 15 times for 56 yards and a touchdown in the Steelers' 27-6 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Dowdle finished just two carries behind Jaylen Warren on the afternoon, and although his backfield mate significantly outpaced him in yardage, the former made his fantasy mark when he opened the scoring on the day with a nine-yard touchdown run in the first quarter. Dowdle recorded new season highs in rush attempts and rushing yards as the Steelers had the luxury of leaning heavily on the ground attack, but Warren remains the backfield's clear No. 1 option heading into the Week 9 bye.

  • Steelers' DK Metcalf: One catch in Week 8 win

    Metcalf brought in one of six targets for four yards in the Steelers' 27-6 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Aaron Rodgers put up a season low in completions, pass attempts, passing yards and completion percentage Sunday, and Metcalf's production was part of the collateral damage. The veteran wideout did see a team high in targets, but the fact he did next to nothing with them led to season lows in catches and receiving yards. Metcalf has had a handful of splash plays over the first half of the season and has two games of more than 90 receiving yards, but he's averaging a career-low 11.5 yards per reception and has just a single touchdown reception heading into the Week 9 bye.

  • Steelers' Aaron Rodgers: Modest production in Week 8 win

    Rodgers completed 13 of 25 passes for 172 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in the Steelers' 27-6 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Jaylen Warren spearheaded the Steelers' attack with 143 rushing yards and a touchdown, and backfield mate Rico Dowdle added 56 yards and a score of his own. When combined with a highly effective effort by Pittsburgh's defense, there wasn't an inordinate amount required of Rodgers and the air attack after much busier games leading into Sunday. Rodgers finished with season-low figures in completions, pass attempts, completion percentage and passing yards while also failing to throw a touchdown pass for the first time since Week 2, but he's highly likely to be back to his prior pass-heavy ways in a Week 10 road showdown against the Bengals on Sunday night, Nov. 15, following a Week 8 bye.

  • Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Ties career high in rushing yards

    Warren rushed 17 times for 143 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of two targets for no gain in the Steelers' 27-6 win over the Browns on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered.

    Warren tied his single-game career high in rushing yards with Sunday's performance, which was partly fueled by a season-long 51-yard run. Warren now has back-to-back 100-yard efforts on the ground for the first time this season, and he snapped a brief two-game rushing TD drought Sunday with a one-yard run early in the third quarter that closed out the scoring for the afternoon. Warren is already up to 704 rushing yards on a career-best 5.9 yards per carry heading into a Week 9 road showdown against the Bengals on Sunday, Nov. 15 following a Week 8 bye.

  • Steelers' Will Howard: Emergency QB3 against Cleveland

    Howard (coach's decision) is inactive but will serve as the Steelers' emergency third quarterback against the Browns on Sunday.

    Howard will continue to operate as the emergency QB3, which means he is not allowed to play Sunday unless both Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph are removed from the game due to injury, illness or ejection.

  • Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Won't play against Cleveland

    Skowronek (calf) is inactive against the Browns on Sunday.

    Skowronek will end up missing a third consecutive game due to a calf injury, and with the Steelers on a bye for Week 9, his next chance to play is Week 10 against the Bengals on Sunday, Nov. 15. Kaden Wetjen, Brandon Smith and Brandon Johnson are in line for more snaps on offense in Skowronek's absence.

  • Steelers' Brandon Johnson: Elevated for Week 8

    The Steelers elevated Johnson from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

    Johnson will be elevated to the active roster for a third consecutive game, so he would need to be signed to the 53-man squad in order to be eligible to play for the Steelers beyond Week 8. He did not record a target across his two prior outings.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Steelers' Brandon Smith: Signed to Pittsburgh's 53-man roster

    The Steelers signed Smith off the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

    Smith had already been elevated from the practice squad thrice, so Saturday's move means he's eligible to suit up for the Steelers for the rest of the season. The Iowa product caught both of his targets for 24 yards against the Saints in Week 7. If Ben Skowronek (calf) cannot play Sunday, then Smith, Kaden Wetjen and Brandon Johnson would all be in line for more offensive snaps.
