Pittsburgh Steelers safety DeShon Elliott initially had a humorous reaction to the idea of Aaron Rodgers joining the team, commenting “Leave his (butt) at the retirement home” on an Instagram rumor. However, Elliott has since changed his tune, posting a photo with Rodgers and expressing a more positive sentiment. The Steelers are considering various quarterback options, including Rodgers, Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, Sam Darnold, Jameis Winston, and Daniel Jones.

The Pittsburgh Steelers should definitely prioritize upgrading their wide receiver corps if they decide to bring back Justin Fields, according to Yahoo Sports analyst Matt Harmon. Fields’ performance last year was hindered by a lack of support from his receivers, and Harmon believes that the Steelers need to take multiple swings at the position to improve their chances of success. The Steelers’ current receiver situation is less than ideal, with George Pickens being the only reliable option. Calvin Austin III was the only other receiver to break the 500-yard mark, and even that was just barely. Harmon’s suggestion to take…
The Detroit Lions have received some disappointing news as they head into the offseason.

His departure is a significant loss for the Lions, but the team still has general manager Brad Holmes at the helm. On a more positive note, the Lions have promoted linebackers coach Kelvin Sheppard to defensive…

Steelers fans may want to shield their eyes after the latest quarterback rumor. According to Andrew Fillipponi of 93.7 The Fan, the Steelers could be interested in former Giants and Vikings quarterback Daniel Jones. This rumor is unsettling, as Jones has been underwhelming throughout his career. He has a career record of 22-44-1 and has never managed more than 24 passing touchdowns in a season. Jones has also thrown only 10 touchdown passes while chipping in 13 interceptions since the 2022 season. Jones is a conservative quarterback who lacks big-play ability, making him the definition of a game manager. His…

Hutchinson suffered a fractured tibia and fibula in Week 6 against the Cowboys and underwent surgery. Despite speculation that he might return for the Super Bowl, this video suggests that was unlikely. The video is great news for Lions fans eager to see Hutchinson return for the 2025 season. Before his injury, Hutchinson was on a hot streak, with 19 total tackles and seven-and-a-half sacks in five games. Extrapolating those numbers…
Miami quarterback Cam Ward, one of the Browns’ top candidates for the No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft, hasn’t been heard from much yet in the pre-draft process. But when he spoke on Monday night, he served notice to the NFL. If teams pass on him, they’ll regret it. “I’ll remember that,’’ Ward said. “I’ll remember the teams that passed on me. I’ll remember the teams that didn’t believe in me. I’ll remember the people that didn’t think I was good enough. And I’ll make sure they know my name. I’ll make sure they remember my name,…
