Season so far
Pittsburgh is 5-2, with a 3-0 home record and a 2-2 road record. The Steelers have won their last three games, including a 16-10 result against New Orleans and a 26-19 overtime win at Tampa Bay. They also beat Indianapolis 34-22; Jaylen Warren had 188 total yards against the Colts.
The read
Pittsburgh returns home at 5-2, with a 3-0 home record and a 2-2 road record. The latest result was a 16-10 win over New Orleans, following victories at Tampa Bay and against Indianapolis. Mike McCarthy’s team now hosts Cleveland after losing 24-27 in the earlier meeting. Both clubs enter at 5-2.
Jaylen Warren remains the starting runner, with Rico Dowdle sharing the backfield work. Warren rushed for 101 yards against New Orleans. Aaron Rodgers passed for 212 yards, and Payton Wilson intercepted a pass near Pittsburgh’s goal line. The defense has allowed six fourth-quarter points during the winning streak. Defensive coordinator Patrick Graham has moved from the booth to the sideline.
The receiving group continues to change around DK Metcalf and Germie Bernard. Michael Pittman Jr. and Roman Wilson remain on injured reserve. Brandon Smith has joined the active roster, and Brandon Johnson has been elevated for today. Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington both have prominent tight-end roles.
Availability remains unsettled in the secondary and on special teams. Brandin Echols and Doneiko Slaughter are out, while Ben Skowronek is questionable. Jalen Ramsey and Alex Highsmith finished practice without game designations. DeShon Elliott has returned, but his workload is not settled. Cleveland tackle Tytus Howard remains questionable in the concussion protocol. Final inactive lists were not available in the latest coverage.
