The Terrible Podcast — Steelers’ Monday Player Additions, Queen Smoke, Free Agent Losses & More

Season 16, Episode 104 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Tuesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing the reported additions the Pittsburgh Steelers made on Monday, the first day of the 2026 legal-tampering period.

Alex and I talk quite extensively about the Steelers trading for WR Michael Pittman Jr. and agreeing to contracts with CB Jamel Dean and RB Rico Dowdle. We go over what is known about the contracts given to all three players and what we have seen on tape from all of them. We also grade each of the player additions.

The Steelers also re-signed CB Asante Samuel Jr., ILB Cole Holcomb and DL Esezi Otomewo on Monday so we talk about all three of those new deals during this show. The Steelers also lost three of their own free agents on Monday in G Isaac Seumalo, RB Kenneth Gainwell, and CB James Pierre. We discuss the deals those players agreed to with their new teams during this show.

Alex and I move forward to discuss positions the Steelers might target as they move forward into the legal tampering period. We also go over a few individual players the team might consider signing.

There’s been a lot of recent smoke concerning the Dallas Cowboys possibly wanting to trade for Steelers ILB Patrick Queen, so Alex and I address that topic during this show. We go over why the Steelers might be willing to trade Queen, what they might be looking for as compensation for him, and what the team’s plan might be if he’s ultimately dealt before March 15.

The Steelers received their official 2026 compensatory draft picks on Monday, so Alex and I recap those. We also address where the Steelers stand right now as far as 2027 compensatory draft pick values go as we continue into Tuesday.

The Baltimore Ravens have lost quite a few of their own free agents so far, so Alex and I address that topic. We also address why Steelers C Zach Frazier and TE Darnell Washington are pretty happy with what they both observed on Monday.

This 90-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the above recap.
