GREAT day to be a Titan — congrats to Shaler softball
Replying to @ShalerArea
@ShalerArea is your @PIAASports Class 5A state softball champions with a 10-0, 5-inning win against Abington Heights. And they close it out with a walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the fifth from leadoff hitter Haley Machajewski!! @PGSportsNow @mwhiteburgh

Steelers now have a second punter after claiming Aidan Laros off waivers from Tampa Bay. Laros is a South Africa native who signed as an undrafted free agent with the Bucs after punting at Charlotte, UT Martin and Kentucky. Veteran WR Brandon Johnson was released to make room.

The Steelers have a few more OTAs practices, but head coach Mike McCarthy called this a week mostly for the "younger generation." Because once they report to Latrobe, they'll have a brief ramp-up period, and then it's go-time: steelers.com/news/a-big-week…

"Mount Washington" has been on the incline each season. Now the Steelers have Darnell Washington signed long-term as another member of their young core who has rounded into just the type of player they envisioned him to be back in 2023: steelers.com/news/washington…

Before they get into a logjam of training camp practices next month, the Steelers had a raging good time at Kennywood, from the coaches and vets to the rookies taking their first plunge into a Pittsburgh tradition. As Gennings Dunker put it: "Electric" steelers.com/news/steelers-h…

Now the Steelers have signed TE Robert Tonyan and LB Jamin Davis after their two-day minicamp tryout, releasing UDFA TE Chamon Metayer out of Arizona State. Two vets added to the mix, one who was in Green Bay with Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy, another who went 19th overall.
