    Steelers' Zach Frazier, Troy Fautanu Have Bones to Be Elite OL | Why Baker Mayfield Wouldn't Work

    06/11/2026 | 31 mins.
    Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

    The Pittsburgh Steelers' offensive line's chemistry between Troy Fautanu, Zach Frazier and Mason McCormick sets the bones for the unit to be elite. Christopher Carter shows his conversation with McCormick about the offensive line and why their improved chemistry is still the core to the team's future. Can they be the group that propels the Steelers to being real playoff contenders? Also, Chris takes your questions on the Locked on Steelers call-in line. Rumors swirl about the possibility of Baker Mayfield being a target for the Steelers in free agency next season. But would that get in the way of the Steelers plan to find their franchise quarterback in the NFL Draft? And could the Steelers even afford the Mayfield in the open free agent market at 32 years old? Also, Nick Herbig's pass rush numbers when T.J. Watt is on the field vs. when he's not shows some important numbers the Steelers need to consider.

    STEELERS SQUAD SHOW: Darnell Washington Gets PAID | Is Joey Porter Jr. Next?

    06/11/2026 | 58 mins.
    The Pittsburgh Steelers are taking care of business! On Wednesday night's weekly edition of the Locked On Steelers Squad Show, Tyler Feldman, Wayne Gandy, Ben Bobick, and Christopher Carter break down Darnell Washington’s new 4-year, $42 million contract extension and what it means for the future of the Steelers offense. 

    Then, the crew dives into the next big question: When will Joey Porter Jr. get paid, and for how much? After another elite season, JPJ has emerged as one of the NFL’s top young cornerbacks, and his next contract could make him one of the highest-paid players at the position. 

    Plus, we have some fun by debating which Steelers legend from the past would make the biggest impact on the current roster, before wrapping things up with another edition of Food for Thought, where we discuss what's on your mind. 

    🔹 Darnell Washington signs a 4-year, $42M extension 

    🔹 Joey Porter Jr. contract projection and timeline 

    🔹 Which Steelers legend would help this team the most? 

    🔹 Food for Thought segment 

    🔹 Live Steelers discussion and fan reactions

    Steelers' Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington a Big Part of Mike McCarthy's Plan | Will Howard's Shot

    06/10/2026 | 30 mins.
    Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Nick Farabaugh of PennLive.com.

    The Pittsburgh Steelers are paying both their top tight ends Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington good money, which means Mike McCarthy's got big plans for them. Christopher Carter and Nick Farabaugh show you what McCarthy said during Steelers OTAs about how he'll incorporate the tight ends into the offense and how Washington can help the offense get a 90s-style feel. Could Freiermuth and Washington become the key weapons for Aaron Rodgers this season? And how will they balance with DK Metcalf, Michael Pittman Jr., Germie Bernard and the receivers? Also, Will Howard has taken the first team reps at OTAs while Rodgers has been away. But is he on the path to become the team's QB2 over Mason Rudolph? Chris and Nick give you their insights from Steelers practice and explain what Howard must do to get the job during training camp. And could Kaleb Johnson lose his spot on the roster as the team's running back to Eli Heidenreich or Travis Homer?

    Top 5 Steelers Candidates for Contract Extensions | Joey Porter Jr. vs Zach Frazier vs Troy Fautanu?

    06/09/2026 | 31 mins.
    Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com.

    The Pittsburgh Steelers have some tough decisions to make about who they want to give contract extensions among the team's young stars. Or do they? Christopher Carter and Alan Saunders rank their top five current Steelers to give contract extensions, including Joey Porter Jr., Zach Frazier Troy Fautanu and more. Who else makes the list? And is there any way for the Steelers to pay all of them to stick around long term? What's Omar Khan planning? Also, Chris and Alan discuss what Aaron Rodgers will need to do to become a beloved player in Steelers lore, and whether the inside linebackers are the weakest group on the team. But even if they are, that might be a good sign considering how deep they are with Patrick Queen, Payton Wilson, Malik Harrison and Cole Holcomb.

    Mike McCarthy's 55-Touch Steelers Offense for Aaron Rodgers a Make or Break Plan for Season?

    06/08/2026 | 33 mins.
    Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

    The Pittsburgh Steelers' new head coach Mike McCarthy says he wants the offense to average 55 touches a game this season. But is that a plan that will work with Aaron Rodgers and this offense? Christopher Carter explains why the Steelers have the playmakers around Rodgers with DK Metcalf, Michael Pittman Jr., Germie Bernard, Jaylen Warren, Rico Dowdle, Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington. But what could also go wrong that makes that plan backfire and potentially cost the season? Chris also takes your questions from the Locked on Steelers call-in line, including the state of the NFL edge rusher trade market and how the Steelers could benefit from trading away Alex Highsmith or TJ Watt. How could the new coaching staff benefit or hinder old players? And what could the Steelers do about the potential position flexibility of third round picks Daylen Everette and Gennings Dunker?
