FF Today's Take: Higgins got in a full practice on Friday which is a good sign for his availability on Sunday versus the Dolphins. He missed last week's game against the Ravens with a concussion. Surprising as it may be, only one wideout has topped 100 yards against the Bengals... Ladd McConkey in Week 6.Source:

‘He’s A Baller’: Troy Fautanu ‘Not Surprised’ By Dylan Cook’s Standout Performance. Coming out of the Week 15 win over the Miami Dolphins, the big story for the Pittsburgh Steelers wasn’t the second straight great performance from quarterback Aaron Rodgers, or the dominant defensive display the Black and Gold had against the explosive Miami offense.

Kozora: Wait To Draft A Quarterback? Yeah, I’ve Heard That One Before. Next year’s quarterback class is gonna blow your mind. That’s the message draftnik Todd McShay sent Rich Eisen earlier this week, imploring QB-needy teams like the Pittsburgh Steelers to avoid the temptation of drafting one in 2026 and wait until 2027. On the surface, it makes sense. The ’26 class is shaping up to be […]

Jaylon Moore (WR - BAL)

Rashee Rice, Tyquan Thornton Out for Week 16.
Chiefs ruled out Rashee Rice, Trent McDuffie, Leo Chenal, Jaylon Moore, Jawaan Taylor, Tyquan Thornton, Jake Briningstool, Nazeeh Johnson, and Derrick Nnadi for Sunday's game agains the Titans. (Adam Schefter on X)
FF Today's Take: Both Rice and Thornton will miss this week's game against the Titans with a concussion. Neither participated in practice this week. That will leave Xavier Worthy, Marquise Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster as the top wideouts for Gardner Minshew. All can be considered for your Flex spot this week.Source:

Steelers Stock Watch – WR Calvin Austin III.

Although the Steelers still list Austin as a starter, the reality is his actual role suggests otherwise. He has played under 30 […]

Simplified Offense Aiding Steelers’ Improvement: ‘Back To What We’ve Been Comfortable And Successful At’. The Steelers’ offense has played better in recent weeks, and Pat Freiermuth offered one possibility as to why that is. Obviously, having Aaron Rodgers healthier hasn’t hurt, even if the offensive line is trending in the wrong direction.

Joe Burrow Expects To ‘Play For A Long Time’ Despite ‘Fighting Against’ Pressure Not To Play. Joe Burrow just wants to play football—but he also wants to win games, which is looking more challenging with the Bengals. Since the start of the 2024 season, Cincinnati is just 12-10 in games that Burrow has started. Coming off perhaps the worst game of his career, he once again faced questions about both his […]
