With several new pieces mixed into the fold this offseason, and very little playing time together for the pieces in the preseason, the Pittsburgh Steelers are taking a gamble that they’ll be able to hit the ground running to open the 2025 season.
A fast start is of great importance for the Black and Gold, too, as the back-end of the schedule gets difficult.
Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Jalen Ramsey, Darius Slay, and others haven’t played in the preseason so far and seem very unlikely to play Thursday night in the finale against the Carolina Panthers.
