? The Pittsburgh Steelers dropped two spots in ESPN’s offseason power rankings to No. 15.

? Mark Kaboly of The Athletic said Russell Wilson’s work ethic rivals former Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown’s.

“One team source said the Steelers haven’t seen somebody work as hard as Wilson at his craft since the early days of Antonio Brown, who was notorious for the effort he put into his game to become the best wide receiver in the league for a span of more than five years,” Kaboly wrote.

? Steelers’ third-round selection Roman Wilson had the highest EPA per target last season of any WR drafted in the first three rounds.

? KDKA: The Steelers have the largest female fanbase in the NFL. So, the team is introducing a brand new event just for SteelHERS fans. The first-ever SteelHers social is happening next week.

? Former Steelers wide receiver Plaxico Burress thinks the New England Patriots will regret drafting quarterback Drake Maye with the third overall pick.
