How To Watch the Pittsburgh Steelers 2024 Season

Can Russell Wilson be the missing piece for Pittsburgh? Check out our NFL watch guide for 2024–2025 Pittsburgh Steelers.

There’s a saying that the NFL stands for “Not For Long,” and for a good example of this phenomenon, look no further than the 2023 Pittsburgh Steelers. After former first-round pick Kenny Pickett flamed out in his first full year under center, he was unceremoniously shipped out in favor of Russell Wilson, who got himself shipped out of Denver earlier that month!

Although Russell Wilson was named the starter ahead of the 2024 regular season, he hasn’t taken one snap. Justin Field’s prayers were answered, and he’s making a strong case for maintaining the franchise’s QB for the 2024 season.

If Fields can simply get the Steelers up to a league-average offense, how far could they go this season? Here’s what you need to know to watch the 2024–2025 Pittsburgh Steelers.

2024–2025 Pittsburgh Steelers schedule

The Steelers open the season with two matchups filled with big off-field storylines. They’ll start the year against a Falcons team that fired Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith and, in Kirk Cousins, imported their own veteran quarterback to try and reach the postseason. For Week 2, they’ll also head to Denver in a rematch against Russell Wilson’s former squad.

Elsewhere, notable matchups include back-to-back primetime matchups against the Jets and Giants, a Thursday Night Football slot with the Browns, and a Christmas Day matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs on Netflix.
