Steelers Sights & Sounds: RBs Work Pass Pro, Secondary Stressed
PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers took the field for OTA practice No. 3 at UPMC Rooney Sports Complex on Thursday, and the running backs are already getting ready for one of the highlights of training camp. Jaylen Warren was already a backs-on-backers star for the Steelers, and the team added two more potential firebrands in free agent Kenneth Gainwell and rookie Kaleb Johnson. Gainwell and Johnson were wearing out the punching bag at practice on Thursday, getting ready for their Steelers training camp debuts. Advertisement On the defensive field, new secondary coach Gerald Alexander was stressing communication by putting his charges through a litany of scenarios meant to challenge their ability to change calls at the line of scrimmage and pass players through complex attempts at overloads by the offense — a significant problem spot for the secondary in 2024.

Riders' Wiebe hopes maximum effort nails down roster spot
The Riders are preparing for one more pre-season test before the 2025 regular season kicks off. The Riders are preparing for one more pre-season test before the 2025 regular season kicks off. Former University of Saskatchewan Husky receiver Daniel Wiebe may be a late-round rookie, the Riders took him in the eighth round, but Wiebe is determined to standout and add to the stable of Canadian talent in the Riders' receiver room. 'All I can really control is my effort,' said Wiebe. 'That's giving 100 per cent every play, whether that play goes my way or not, it's kind of out of my control. So, just really what I'm trying to focus on is giving my best every play and every moment too, learning the playbook as much as I can.' Riders' starting quarterback Trevor Harris has been impressed with the rookie so far in training camp and knows that the receiver position is fierce in terms of competing for roster spots this season. 'Wiebe's just been making plays and doing all the right things in training camp, so you root for all of the guys and you kind of just be the best teammate you can and hope for the best for them,' said Harris. In 2024, Wiebe had a breakout season in his fourth year with the University of Saskatchewan, posting 66 receptions for 923 yards and nine touchdowns. However, acclimating to the CFL game requires players to be quick on their feet, according to Wiebe. 'Everything happens a little bit faster right, so you have to be that much more dialed in all the time. Everyone is a little bit bigger too, so you have to make sure that you're kind of prepared for that as well. And it's a physical game out there, so you have to be ready to [be] physical on every play.' Wiebe is no stranger to playing at Mosaic Stadium, having done so each year he was a member of the Huskies. With the Riders' final preseason game just two days away, he is looking forward to wearing home colours for a change. 'It's crazy that it's even about to happen, so really just trying to stay in the moment and just do my best.' Friday will be the final audition for many prospective players, as final roster cuts are due for all CFL teams by 10 p.m. on Saturday. The Riders open the 2025 regular season June 5 at home against Ottawa.
