Steelers' Pat Freiermuth Shows Love To Biggest Rival: 'He's A Beast'
The Pittsburgh Steelers play in what is likely the most difficult division in the NFL. Every team in the AFC North ranks near the top when it comes to strength of schedule for the 2024 season, and that is because they all have to face one another twice a year.

Pittsburgh's biggest rival in the league is arguably the Baltimore Ravens, and tight end Pat Freiermuth recently praised one of their star defenders. Freiermuth is looking to have his best season yet in 2024, which will be his...

2024 Stock Watch – DB Ryan Watts
Reasoning: The signing of ILB Tyler Matakevich could cause a ripple effect that sends rookie DB Ryan Watts off the roster. Matakevich won’t necessarily take the place of another linebacker, and Watts is sort of in between positions. He will need to prove that he is as good as somebody like Mark Robinson, potentially, to make the team. He was going to have a battle making the roster before this, but the move only makes it tougher.
