Season 16, Episode 157 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing the Pittsburgh Steelers hiring Darian Thompson to be the team's new Assistant Special Teams Coach.
Steelers RB Rico Dowdle has a chance at accomplishing a rushing feat in 2026 that no other NFL player has ever done before. Alex and I discuss the specifics related to that run at history by Dowdle and his chances of actually doing so.
After thoroughly discussing the Thompson news and the Dowdle feat he can accomplish in 2026, we talk in-depth about nine more players in my annual 90-in-30 training camp preview series.
The nine players Alex and I discuss in this episode are CB Brandin Echols, S DeShon Elliott, CB Daylen Everette, OT Troy Fautanu, OC Zach Frazier, TE Pat Freiermuth, TE JJ Galbreath, DT Anthony Goodlow, and DT Derrick Harmon. As part of our discussions about all nine of those players, we give the summer outlook for each and the chances a few of them have at sticking in Pittsburgh once the preseason ends.
Much later in this show, Alex and i discuss the latest news concerning QB Brendan Sorsby. We also briefly discuss CB Joey Porter Jr. having yet to sign a contract extension this offseason and QB Drew Allar having yet to sign his rookie contract.
This 118-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above, and we make sure to answer a few listener emails we have received to close out this show.
