Description
August 7, 2026 -
Season 17, Episode 5 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning show, that was recorded on Thursday night, Alex Kozora and I start by talking about the Football Night In America debut of former Pittsburgh Steelers HC Mike Tomlin ahead of the annual Hall of Fame game.
The Steelers Thursday training camp included the team sustaining a few injuries to players, so we go over what we know and don't know about the statuses of OT Max Iheanachor and CB Brandin Echols. We also go over the list of players that failed to practice on Thursday.
Pittsburgh signed veteran DB Israel Mukuamu on Thursday, so Alex and I discuss his addition to the roster and the possibility of him possibly making the 53-man roster after the preseason ends.
On the heels of the Steelers releasing their first depth chart on Wednesday, Alex and I note a few things that did catch our attention and even though we know better to read too much into it before the preseason gets under way.
After reviewing a few notable things that Steelers HC Mike McCarthy said on Thursday morning, Alex and I have a fairly lengthy discussion about ILB Payton Wilson as he heads into his third NFL season.
This 68-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above and we end things by answering a few email questions we received from listeners.
