Steelers | Pittsburgh lands Skylar Thompson Tue Jan 14, 02:44 PM
Free-agent QB Skylar Thompson (Dolphins) signed a Reserve/Futures contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Tuesday, Jan. 14.
Footballguys view: As Profootballtalk.com pointed out, this move makes Thompson part of the 90-man offseason roster, which is more than what the current quarterbacks on the rosters will be unless they re-sign. Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, and Kyle Allen will become free agents in March. Last year, the Steelers moved on from Kenny Pickett, Mitchell Trubisky, and Mason Rudolph, hitting the full reset button at the most critical position on the team. Time will tell whether the Steelers clean house again or whether one or more will stick around after his first season in Pittsburgh. Meanwhile, Thompson, 27, was a seventh-round pick of the Dolphins in 2022. He has 10 regular-season appearances, three regular-season starts, and one playoff start from 2022 at Buffalo. |

Steelers | Jaylen Warren opens up week with limited practice Tue Dec 31, 03:45 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (ribs) was limited in practice on Tuesday, Dec. 31.
Footballguys view: Warren turned in his best performance of the year against Kansas City, rushing for 71 yards on 11 carries while adding five receptions for 41 yards. The 26-year-old, who will become a restricted free agent in the offseason, has seen a significant uptick in his touches over the past several weeks after taking a back seat to Najee Harris at the beginning of the month. The early expectation is this injury won't keep Warren from playing against the Bengals on Saturday, but we'll watch for more. |

Footballguys view: Pickens was listed as a limited participant on Sunday's report but was a full participant on Monday and Tuesday. Pickens leads Pittsburgh with 55 catches and 850 yards. He's caught three touchdowns this season. He'll face as Chiefs defense that's given up 20-plus point fantasy outputs to receivers in three of the last five games (including the last two). |
