Pittsburgh Steelers’ 2025 schedule littered with revenge games
The Pittsburgh Steelers 2025 season and schedule are littered with potential revenue game storylines, starting right at the beginning.
If Aaron Rodgers does sign with the Steelers, then there will be two games on the calendar for a revenge game storyline. The first one will be against the New York Jets in Week 1, which would be Rodgers’ return to the Meadowlands. It would also be Justin Fields’ revenge game against the Steelers.
The second of those two games for Rodgers would be on Sunday Night Football against the Green Bay Packers. That game was scheduled to be a revenge game in the lights.
For the new Steelers wide receiver, DK Metcalf, his chance against his former team will come in during their home opener in Week 2. The Seattle Seahawks will venture to Acrisure Stadium, and Metcalf has a chance to get one up on his former teammates.
Meanwhile, there are still other notable storylines dotted throughout the season. Noticeably, in Week 6, the Cleveland Browns come to Pittsburgh. That could mean former Steelers first-round pick Kenny Pickett is starting for the Browns, and it would be his return to Acrisure Stadium.
Lastly, the other notable game that will be circled as revenge will be the Steelers Week 10 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. There, the Steelers will face their former first-round running back, Najee Harris, for the first time. Former cornerback Donte Jackson is also on the team.
The Steelers’ schedule is laden with many storylines and connections right away, and if Rodgers signs, those stories will be drummed up as the season draws near
