The Pittsburgh Steelers had a long-standing stretch of consistency at quarterback with Ben Roethlisberger 18 years. Since after the 2021 season, the Steelers have been struggling to get the quarterback position right. Kenny Pickett was a bust, and now they’re trying to establish something for this season between Russell Wilson and Justin Fields who are both on one-year deals without a long-term future. It’s time for the Steelers to rebuild and test the rookie route again.

Former NFL wide receiver and return man Jacoby Jones, who turned 40 on Thursday, died on Sunday, according to a report from the Baltimore Sun. Jones is most famous for his heroics during the Baltimore Ravens' 2012 Super Bowl run, which include a 108-yard kickoff return touchdown in Super Bowl XLVII against the San Francisco 49ers, the longest return in Super Bowl history as well as the longest in NFL postseason history. Jones also hauled in a 56-yard touchdown pass from Super Bowl MVP quarterback Joe Flacco to put the Ravens up 21-3 in a game they would hold on to win 34-31. His 290 total yards gained that day are the most in a single Super Bowl ever.
