August 13, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 9 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the overall health of the Pittsburgh Steelers now that their 2025 training camp practices at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, PA are over with. We discuss Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers getting dinged during Tuesdays practice and more. Steelers DT Cameron Heyward finally addressed the media to talk about his contract situation a few days ago so Alex and I completely parse all that he had to say on that topic. We go over what it sounds like Cameron Heyward is waiting in terms of his contract being adjusted, what he might and might not get as an end result and the several types of pushbacks he has received concerning the topic. Would Cameron Heyward seriously consider missing games in 2025 due to his contract situation? We discuss that question and also go over several other questions related to his contract wants and how that has been handled by his side this offseason. Keeping with the Heyward theme, Alex and I discuss Steelers TE Connor Heyward in this show. We talk about how safe his spot on the 53-man roster seems to be right now and if the Steelers should look outside the organization for a possibly upgrade to be their fourth tight end. Speaking of the tight end position, Alex and I discuss an old breakdown that former New England Patriots HC Bill Belichick had when it comes to what he looked for in his tight ends and the roles for each on the depth chart. That makes for a fun conversation when applying to the Steelers current group of tight ends. We also go over Belichick's old thoughts on offense and other offensive position groups. With the all-22 tape from the Steelers first preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars now fully digested by both of us, Alex and I recap the good, bad, ugly, and other notable things that we observed. We address and review the individual play of several Steelers players from Saturday night as part of our lengthy postgame breakdown of the tape. The Pivot podcast recently released training camp interviews with Steelers HC Mike Tomlin and new CB Jalen Ramsey that certainly got our full attention. We discuss both interviews and especially Ramsey's in depth. I explain why the Ramsey interview really has me even more fired up when it comes to the impact he can make on defense for the 2025 season and beyond. This 140-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap, and we make sure to answer several email questions we received from listeners of the show. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In this clip from the Wednesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette insider Christopher Carter to ponder the losers at Steelers training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe. Could Robert Woods miss the team at receiver, having possibly been surpassed on the depth chart by names like Roman Wilson and Scotty Miller? Or does he still have a chance to find chemistry with QB Aaron Rodgers? Where does Isaiahh Loudermilk fit in the pecking order on the defensive line after rookies Derrick Harmon and Yahya Black had strong outings? Is Cory Trice Jr. in danger of losing a roster spot amid yet another injury? And with competitors like Beanie Bishop and James Pierre putting solid tape together? And could Skylar Thompson be a threat to Will Howard as the No. 3 QB behind Rodgers and Mason Rudolph? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

Has Yahya Black proven that he's the top reserve offensive lineman behind Cam Heyward, Keeanu Benton and Derrick Harmon? Is Scotty Miller now a lock to make the team after demonstrating chemistry with Aaron Rodgers? How much does Jalen Ramsey appear poised to transform this defense after the late offseason trade that brought him to Pittsburgh in exchange for Minkah Fitzpatrick?

The latest on the Cam Heyward front makes it sound like the Steelers are not in the mood to pay him, per Adam Schefter. It sounds like he wants more than just a little sweetener on the top of his deal. Is there some animosity because the Steelers paid multiple guys on the defense this offseason, but not Heyward? The guys think the team was the side leaking things to ESPN. Do the Steelers have the ability to roll over some money from next year or would Heyward also turn that down? We also listened to the final Mike Tomlin chat with the media at Saint Vincent College. 93.7 The Fan Sports Director Jeff Hathhorn joined the show. Jeff said the arrow is pointing up on Broderick Jones after a strong finish to training camp. Jeff thinks Troy Fautanu is finding where he was at the end of camp last year before the injury sidelined him for the whole year. The guys asked Jeff about Kaleb Johnson and his finish to camp after an underwhelming performance on Saturday. How much work will these guys see in the second preseason game with a joint practice being held tomorrow? Jeff said Jalen Ramsey has been the most impactful player on the field over the course of camp. Jeff voted Aaron Rodgers as the offensive MVP of camp, at least for the last week of work. Jeff noted that Scotty Miller has been the most consistent player on the offense through camp. Name Game.

On the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, Post-Gazette insiders Christopher Carter and Ray Fittipaldo discuss burning topics heading into the final week of Steelers training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe. Is depth at receiver still a concern behind DK Metcalf? Or have Roman Wilson and Scotty Miller done enough in the eyes of GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin to resist a free agent signing or trade involving veterans such a Amari Cooper or Allen Lazard? And where does the injured Calvin Austin III fit into that conversation? Then later, the guys ponder which depth corners are best positioned to make the 53-man roster behind Darius Slay Jr., Joey Porter Jr. and Jalen Ramsey. Will Brandin Echols or Beanie Bishop ultimately get the nod as DC Teryl Austin begins the process of paring down his roster in the coming weeks? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

Post-Gazette insiders Christopher Carter and Brian Batko recap practice at Steelers training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe. They detail notable veterans who will miss the NFL preseason opener Saturday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, including T.J. Watt, Jalen Ramsey, Jaylen Warren, DK Metcalf and others, according to coach Mike Tomlin. They also note the progress of the offense in practice, particularly in attacking the middle of the field with QB Aaron Rodgers and WR Scotty Miller. Will Rodgers have more success there than predecessors Russell Wilson and Justin Fields did in OC Arthur Smith's offense? And could Miller have a bigger role than expected alongside names like Calvin Austin III and Roman Wilson? Then later, the guys explain why Yahya Black has continued to impress on the defensive line and offer their thoughts on Cam Heyward's hold-in as he reportedly seeks another new contract after signing a lucrative extension just one year ago.

Post-Gazette insiders Gerry Dulac and Ray Fittipaldo recap practice at Steelers training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe. They break down the latest Will Howard injury news, which is that the rookie QB is expected to miss the entire NFL preseason with a broken hand, opening up reps for names like Mason Rudolph and Skyler Thompson. They also analyze the punting battle between Cameron Johnston and Corliss Waitman. And react to QB Aaron Rodgers' comments indicating that he does not expect to play in the preseason opener this weekend. Is coach Mike Tomlin making the right move to protect his QB? Or should Rodgers see some action as he looks to build chemistry with weapons like DK Metcalf, Roman Wilson, Calvin Austin III, Jonnu Smith and Pat Freiermuth. Our guys tackle those questions and more.
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers speaks with assembled media ahead of practice at Steelers training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe. He speaks on his growing chemistry with receiver Roman Wilson as he looks to find his place in the receivers room alongside Calvin Austin III and DK Metcalf; his relationship with OC Arthur Smith that's included long meetings in the evening; his thoughts on backup QB Will Howard amid his recent injury; and his belief in the value of NFL preseason games.
On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette insider Christopher Carter to analyze the team's increasing volume of injuries during Steelers training camp. How much will Will Howard's hand injury -- which reportedly will keep him out at least three weeks -- stymie his progress in challenging Mason Rudolph for the No. 2 QB job? How much should fans worry about Calvin Austin III, who's missed several practices as he looks to prove he can be a capable WR2 behind DK Metcalf? And have the absences of names like Jonnu Smith, Joey Porter Jr., Isaac Seumalo and others simply been the normal wear and tear of camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe? Our duo tackles those questions, then talks receivers. Is Roman Wilson starting to turn a corner in his chemistry with QB Aaron Rodgers after a highlight-reel catch Tuesday? Is Scotty Miller still in the mix to make the roster despite failing to see the field much with Justin Fields and Russell Wilson in 2024? Could the Steelers still make a move for a veteran like Amari Cooper? Or are they confident in their depth and other veterans like Robert Woods and Ben Skowronek.

They ponder whether coach Mike Tomlin and OC Arthur Smith can get the inconsistency turned around ahead of the first NFL preseason game this week; whether Broderick Jones is in trouble after struggling against teammates Alex Highsmith, Nick Herbig and T.J. Watt; and the challenge facing others including Zach Frazier, Mason McCormick and Troy Fautanu as they look to protect QB Aaron Rodgers and pave the way for RBs Jaylen Warren and Kaleb Johnson. Then later, they explain how the veteran days off for projected starters like Cam Heyward, T.J. Watt, Jalen Ramsey and Keeanu Benton have given other players a chance to shine and prove that this defense has lots of useful players. They praise guys including Brandin Echols, James Pierre, Jack Sawyer, Yahya Black and Daniel Ekuale for their solid performances in team practice sessions, allowing the unit to maintain momentum against the struggling offense.

On the Friday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Christopher Carter and Ray Fittipaldo react to the team's first training camp practice at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe. They explain why it's way too soon to panic about a rough start for Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf, who connected just one time in four attempts Thursday. Why Metcalf is optimistic about the way OC Arthur Smith plans to use him. And how other pieces including linemen Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu; backs Jaylen Warren and Kaleb Johnson; tight ends Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith; and receivers Calvin Austin III and Roman Wilson still have time to come togehter. Later, the guys analyze the defense and what we can learn from where names such as Jalen Ramsey, Juan Thornhill and T.J. Watt are lining up.
Post-Gazette insiders Gerry Dulac & Ray Fittipaldo recap Day 2 of practice at Steelers training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe. They explain why Aaron Rodgers is looking more comfortable after completing a beautiful pass to DK Metcalf; why we have yet to see Jonnu Smith in extended action at tight end; the stakes for Calvin Austin III and Roman Wilson as they look to fend off a possible signing at WR that could limit their playing time; and Broderick Jones' physical transformation as he moves back to LT.
Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise reacts to the Steelers' first practice day of training camp in Latrobe. He gives thoughts on the news of the day, as new faces including Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu Smith took to the Saint Vincent College practice field for the first time and as returning stars like T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward and Jaylen Warren look to build toward the franchise's first NFL playoff win since 2017. He also weighs in on former Steelers quarterback Justin Fields' injury scare in his first practice with the New York Jets, plus the Pirates' sweep of the Detroit Tigers at PNC Park.

Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf weren't on the same page and showed they have aways to go. Joey Porter Jr. and Kaleb Johnson might have had the two best days of anybody out there.

July 23, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 1 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday evening show, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the Pittsburgh Steelers reporting to Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, PA earlier in the day for the start of their 2025 training camp. We first discuss the team placing G Isaac Seumalo on the Active/NFI list at the start of training camp with a soft tissue injury. We talk about how he will miss the start of training camp and who is likely to fill in for him at left guard until he is healthy. We talk a little bit about how the Steelers are really a healthy team overall heading into training camp this year. Steelers HC Mike Tomlin talked to the media Wednesday afternoon, so we go over a few key things that he had to say at the start of camp. We focus a lot on what Tomlin had to see about the expected cornerback usage in 2025 when it comes to the top three in that position group, Joey Porter Jr., Jalen Ramsey, and Darius Slay. Steelers GM Omar Khan also had a press conference on Wednesday, so Alex and I parse the main talking points to come out of his media session. There's a lot to recap from Khan when it comes to possible additions moving forward and future contract extensions this summer. We discuss how active Khan has been this offseason with him also keeping a close eye on the 2026 NFL Draft.

Watt also had a formal press conference on Wednesday. Alex and I make sure to parse the several key things that he had to say during his media session.
