2026 HALL OF HONOR
The Steelers are one of the most decorated teams in the NFL. They’ve won six Super Bowls, and with that success, they’ve also had a lot of great players. Many are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but not all of them. However, the Steelers have their own way of honoring franchise greats, creating their Hall of Honor a few years ago.
The Steelers induct a handful of former players and contribute to their Hall of Honor each year. Fans can currently nominate candidates for the team’s 2026 Hall of Honor class, as shared on Twitter. The Steelers are also giving away two tickets to their Hall of Honor Dinner. All fans need to do to enter is submit a nomination for the honor.

STEELHERS EVENT
The Steelers have one of the NFL’s largest fanbases, extending even to other countries. The team often tries to give back to those who support them, too. That includes putting a spotlight on their female fans.
The team recently held its annual SteelHers event, which is meant to celebrate female Steelers fans. Steelers Nation Unite posted a video on Twitter showing some of its highlights. Several players were also in attendance, including Jack Sawyer, Yahya Black and Logan Lee. It looks like it was a complete success.
GIANTS FEAR OLSZEWSKI TORE ACHILLES
The Steelers have struggled to find a consistent kick returner in recent years. Some fans might remember Kaleb Johnson’s disaster in that spot last year. However, the team has kicked the tires on plenty of other return specialists in the past, and none worked out. That includes wide receiver Gunner Olszewski, who was with the Steelers in 2022 and 2023.
While Olszewski’s Steelers tenure didn’t work out, he spent the last few years trying to bounce back with the New York Giants. Unfortunately, it looks like Olszewski could miss the entire 2026 season. ESPN insider Adam Schefter shared on Twitter that the Giants fear that Olszewski tore his Achilles. It’s not confirmed yet, but that’s bad news for Olszewski. It’s one of the worst injuries in the sport.
