George Pickens Has Solid Outing Nullified By Penalties In Week 2 Win

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens finished with just two receptions for 29 yards on four targets in the team's 13-6 win over the Denver Broncos.

Jaylen Warren Gets Involved In Week 2 Victory

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren turned nine carries into 42 rushing yards and two catches into 19 receiving yards in a Week 2 win over the Denver Broncos.

Steelers D/ST A Must-Start In Week 2

The Pittsburgh Steelers put on a defensive clinic in their season opener and appear primed for another dominant showing against the Denver Broncos in Week 2.

Chris Boswell Looks To Stay Hot Against Broncos

George Pickens Faces Tough Test Against Broncos

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens operated as the favorite weapon of quarterback Justin Fields last week and will hope to find continued success against the Denver Broncos in Week 2.

Jaylen Warren Difficult To Trust Despite Plus Matchup

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren saw only four opportunities last week but will hope to be more involved against the Denver Broncos in Week 2.

Najee Harris Has Excellent Matchup In Week 2

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris dominated touches out of the backfield in Week 1 and should be primed for another heavy workload against the Denver Broncos on Sunday.

Pat Freiermuth Catches All Four Targets In Season Opener

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth turned four targets into four catches for 27 yards in a Week 1 win against the Atlanta Falcons.

With MyCole Pruitt and Darnell Washington […]

George Pickens Leads All Receivers In Win Over Falcons

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens caught six of seven targets for 85 yards and lost 10 yards on his lone rush attempt in an 18-10 victory against the Atlanta Falcons.

Najee Harris Rushes For 70 Yards Against Falcons

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris handled 20 carries for 70 yards and hauled in one of his two targets for nine yards in a Week 1 victory over the Atlanta Falcons.

Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season is finally here. We've already been treated to two excellent games and there are plenty more to look forward to on Sunday and Monday.

Steelers D/ST In Play Against Falcons

The Pittsburgh Steelers defense/special teams was great for fantasy purposes last season and will kick off the 2024 campaign in Atlanta against the Falcons. The Steelers allowed the eighth-fewest points in the NFL in 2023, and although the Falcons scored just under 19 points per contest, Atlanta's offense should be much improved this season with […]

Chris Boswell A Risky Option In Week 1

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell was extremely steady in 2023 and will hope to find success against the Atlanta Falcons in the first contest of his 10th professional season. Atlanta allowed nearly 22 points per game and gave up the third-most fantasy points to opposing kickers last year. Boswell could provide fantasy value in this […]

Justin Fields Could Provide QB1 Value Against Falcons

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Justin Fields may see the field sooner than anticipated in a Week 1 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.

George Pickens Offers Plenty Of Upside In Week 1

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens finished as the fantasy WR26 last season and will be looking to establish himself as a true No. 1 option in 2024.

Najee Harris A Volume-Based RB2 Against Falcons

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris is set to begin his fourth professional campaign against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. Although the Steelers conducted one of the least productive offenses in the NFL last season, Harris still managed to rush for over 1,000 yards and eight touchdowns.

Should I Draft Rashee Rice or Xavier Worthy for Fantasy Football? Who Is The Chiefs WR1 for 2024?

Although they struggled at times in 2023, the Kansas City Chiefs have been dominant on the offensive side of the ball for most of the past decade.

George Pickens Displays Chemistry With Russell Wilson

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens hauled in both of his targets for 26 yards in the team's 24-17 preseason loss to the Detroit Lions.
