Steelers mailbag: Will DK Metcalf bounce back vs. Patriots?
Ahead of their Week 2 contest in Foxborough, quarterback Aaron Rodgers signaled he will continue feeding passes to Pittsburgh Steelers wideout DK Metcalf despite recent difficulties. Pittsburgh enters the matchup assessing both positive and negative injury developments, while defensive back Joey Porter Jr.
could be in line to rejoin the secondary against the New England Patriots.
New England seeks to recover from an opening loss against Seattle during their home opener, with quarterback Drake Maye leading the offensive unit alongside running back Rhamondre Stevenson. Meanwhile, cornerback Christian Gonzalez presents a major defensive challenge for Pittsburgh, potentially forcing complementary targets Roman Wilson and Pat Freiermuth to carry more weight in the passing attack.
