Podcast: Steelers Podcast - The Terrible PodcastPublished On: Wed Aug 05 2026
Description: August 5, 2026 - Season 17, Episode 4 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I start by talking about the latest set of transactions that the Pittsburgh Steelers have made. We also go over the health of the 91-man roster after six training camp practices. Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers has been in the mainstream news cycle because of several polarizing comments that he made during his recent interview on The Pat McAfee Show. We discuss the firestorm that Rodgers seems to have now restarted and if there are any concerns about it impacting the team or locker room with training camp now nearly halfway over. Rodgers has reportedly recently said that he might play some during the preseason, so we address what he had to say on the topic as well as what HC Mike McCarthy said on the possibility of his starting quarterback playing snaps during the exhibition contests slate. Alex and I discuss our thoughts on Rodgers possibly playing during the preseason and how it might impact the snaps of the other three quarterbacks on the roster should that ultimately happen. The Atlanta Falcons have now lost a key starter on defense due to a training camp season-ending injury so we discuss the impact that could have in Week 1 when they face the Steelers. The development of Steelers rookie OT Max Iheanachor seems to be one of the biggest storylines coming out of training camp with six practices now in the books, so Alex and I discuss that narrative. Later in this show, Alex and I also go over the other most notable storylines to come out of camp at this point. Alex recently wrote about his thoughts on each member of the Steelers 2026 draft class after six camp practices, so he recaps that post during this show. Former Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger made quite a prediction about the Steelers' 2026 offense and points scored this year during his recent podcast episode, so Alex and I address that later in this show. Are the Steelers currently in the market for a veteran free safety-type that can play on special teams? Should they be? Alex and I address those two questions based on recent comments made by McCarthy on the position. Alex and I also review a few notable quotes from several Steelers' players the last few days to round out this episode. This 69-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above and we end things by answering a few email questions we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.
