Steelers coach disappears from team website — what does it mean?
Mike Sullivan, who served for the Pittsburgh Steelers as the QB coach from 2021 to 2023 and as the Senior Offensive Assistant in 2024, has been removed from the team website — but what does it mean? Social media began to speculate as to why Sullivan, a well-respected coach with over 22 years of NFL-level experience, was so quietly pushed to the side on the Steelers website — and it's probably not a clerical error. Advertisement ESPN's Brooke Pryor, who reported his absence from the coaching staff page on the Steelers website, referred to Sullivan as possibly being "no longer employed by the team." It is difficult to pinpoint exactly when Sullivan was pulled from the team website, but we can deduce that it happened within the last month — as according to the April 1, 2025, version of the Steelers website found on the Internet Archive, Sullivan's picture was still on the coaching staff. Will the Steelers ever make the move official, or is there more at play behind the scenes?

Bills Select Defensive 'Steal' In New Mock Draft
The Buffalo Bills have their offense figured out. That much is known coming off another run to the Conference Title Game last season. It's the defense, though, that clearly needs more reinforcements. In most mock drafts around the country, the Bills are predicted to focus solely on the defensive side of the ball with the receiver position as a potential chip-in as part of the conversation. Advertisement ESPN's top draft analyst Mel Kiper agrees with that notion. The veteran analyst predicted that the Bills would not only draft a cornerback in Kentucky's Maxwell Hairston, but also defensive tackle Tyleik Williams and safety Xavier Watts with their second round selections. "Williams is stout against the run up the middle, but he also shows the quickness and suddenness to penetrate the backfield," Kiper said. "Over the past two seasons, he had 5.5 sacks, 34 pressures, 16.5 tackles for loss and 21 run stops. He could get into the mix up the middle with Ed Oliver and DaQuan Jones, especially with Larry Ogunjobi suspended for six games." Watts is another player who Kiper believes would fill a hole in Buffalo's defense. While the Bills were not bad in any stretch last year on that side of the ball, they did lose key free agents like Rasul Douglas and Von Miller. Adding youth to the group is also something that many teams push for once they sign a star quarterback to a lucrative contract. With a collection of Hairston, Watts, and Williams, the Bills get that goal accomplished. Related: Bills Urged To Draft 'All-Pro' Talent In Major Move Related: Diggs Gets Intimate Dance From Cardi B
