Previously, Andrew Fillipponi of 93.7 The Fan reported that his sources leaked the Steelers will host the Vikings in Week 4 — and another reliable rumor source just surfaced to support this.
According to sports writer and analyst Arif Hasan, the Vikings will face AFC North teams in both Weeks 4 and 5 internationally — the Steelers in Ireland and the Browns in London, respectively.
The Vikings' perfect 4-0 international record will hopefully be broken by the Steelers, who are still seeking their first international victory in franchise history.

Filippo Inzaghi leaves Pisa after Serie A promotion
Filippo Inzaghi has left his role as Pisa head coach after leading the club to their first Serie A promotion in 34 years. Inzaghi had his contract mutually terminated after just one season in charge. Following successive mid-table finishes in Serie B, he led the club back to the top flight with a second-place finish in 2024-25 , 10 points clear of third-place Spezia. Advertisement Pisa's promotion was the second time Inzaghi has led a side back to the Serie A after his Benevento side went up as champions of Serie B in 2019-20. Inzaghi's departure comes amid widespread change in the coaching departments of Italian clubs. His young brother, Simone, left Inter to join Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal earlier this month after failing to secure a trophy during 2024-25. Cristian Chivu was appointed as Inter's new head coach after the club lost the Champions League final by a record 5-0 margin to Paris Saint-Germain. Gian Piero Gasperini, who led Atalanta to their 2024 Europa League win, replaced Claudio Ranieri as Roma's head coach, while Massimiliano Allegri succeeded Sergio Conceicao in the Milan dugout after failing to secure European football. Fiorentina head coach Raffaele Palladino had his contract terminated following a sixth-placed finish in Serie A, while Maurizio Sarri has returned to Lazio. Inzaghi's coaching career began at Milan, where he scored 126 goals in 300 matches during his playing career. He took charge for the 2014-15 season and recorded a 10th-placed finish. The 51-year-old had subsequent spells with Venezia, Bologna, Benevento, Brescia, Reggina, Salernitana and most recently Pisa, but has never spent more than two seasons with the same club in that time. The former Italy international is his nation's joint-sixth highest goalscorer of all time, with 25 goals in 57 international appearances during his playing career.

Former Viking Shaquill Griffin set to visit the Las Vegas Raiders during minicamp
Former Viking Shaquill Griffin set to visit the Las Vegas Raiders during minicamp One of the more underrated members of the Minnesota Vikings' defense in 2024 is one step closer to officially not returning for a re-run in 2025. Shaquill Griffin, who played in all 17 games and started three last year for the Vikings, visited the Las Vegas Raiders this week, per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. The Raiders are coached by Pete Carroll, who drafted Griffin in 2017 as the head coach of the Seattle Seahawks. Griffin spent his first four years with Carroll in Seattle, intercepting six passes and breaking up 40. He was selected for his lone Pro Bowl in 2019. The Vikings are comfortable with their current cornerback room and weren't planning on bringing Griffin back. He intercepted two passes in 2024 and posted a respectable 63.7 PFF grade, but he turns 30 next month. If he remains unsigned into training camp and the Vikings don't like the progress they've seen from their young cornerbacks, perhaps they will look to bring Griffin back on another one-year deal. But right now, a potential reunion for him would be with his first head coach in the NFL.
