🏈 Russell Wilson is thrilled to be a New York Giant. Shortly after signing with the G-Men, Wilson reflected on winning a Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks at MetLife Stadium.

“Been here before… can’t wait to do it again,” Wilson wrote on X.

🏈 Pittsburgh Steelers second-year center Zach Frazier and his wife Stephanie announced on Instagram that they’re having a baby.

🏈 Russell Wilson and Justin Fields are both in the Big Apple now.

🏈 The Steelers have revamped the entire quarterback room for the second year in a row. To say the least, life after Ben Roethlisberger has been a challenge for the Steelers.

🏈 Steelers general manager Omar Khan is loading up on compensatory picks for 2026.

🏈 Free-agent wide receiver Stefon Diggs reached an agreement on a three-year, $69 million deal including $26 million guaranteed with the New England Patriots on Tuesday night. The Steelers play the Patriots in 2025 at Gillette Stadium, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

🏈 Former Steelers guard James Daniels doesn’t know if he’ll play left or right guard in Miami.

“They’re still figuring things out,” Daniels told reporters on Tuesday. “They just said during OTAs they’ll have a plan, but they just told me they’re still figuring things out right now.”

Daniels also said he has no preference.

“It really doesn’t — position-wise, left guard or right guard, it really doesn’t matter,” he said.

Daniels, who suffered a season-ending Achilles tendon injury in Week 4 last season, said he’ll be good to go for training camp.

“The status of the Achilles, it’s going pretty well,” Daniels said. “I wasn’t lucky to have the Achilles injury, but I was lucky [when] it happened. I had surgery the first week of October. I’m on schedule, I’m on track, so I was really fortunate about the timing in the year where we won’t have to worry about anything this upcoming season.”

🏈 Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk wonders if Aaron Rodgers will fit the Steelers culture.

“At the core, that’s why some fans seem to be against it. If Rodgers wanted to be a Steeler, it would have already happened. The delay makes it seem calculated and cold. It seems to some that Rodgers is trying to help himself, not the team.That makes him not fit, in their view, with the way things work in Pittsburgh.

“As someone who has spent nearly 60 years within 100 miles of Pittsburgh, I can relate. Either you want to be Pittsburgh or you don’t. And some fans are thinking that Rodgers’s arrival would be less about embracing Pittsburgh and more about settling for it.

“Rodgers needs to understand this, if it’s going to work. He needs to convince the fans he wants to be there. That he’s honored to be there. That he plans to fully immerse himself in the Primanti’s and pierogies culture — in a way that seems genuine and authentic and not at all convenient or contrived.

“For some Steelers fans, it’s already too late for that. Because if he really wanted to be in Pittsburgh he’d already be there.”

🏈 Alex Highsmith dropped a Tomlinism when speaking with the Charlotte football program. Highsmith played at Charlotte from 2015-2019.

🏈 Steelers defensvie tackle Cam Heyward joined Good Morning Football to talk Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers, WWE, and more.

🏈 The Steelers official X account posted a three-minute highlight reel of DK Metcalf.
