Steelers put out cryptic message on social media

What could Tuesday’s big Steelers announcement be?

It isn’t often that the Pittsburgh Steelers are mysterious, much less cryptic. So when they are, it certainly catches our attention. On Monday, the Steelers social media team shared the image below with a message about a special announcement coming on Tuesday.

This post immediately brought out speculation. Most of it centered on the firing of offensive coordinator Matt Canada and the hiring of former Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger as his replacement. Neither of these seems plausible, and we have some ideas about what the message might mean.

First and foremost, we are hoping this is the announcement that the 2026 NFL draft will be in Pittsburgh. Days ago, word came out that Pittsburgh was in the running, and letting the best football city in the country host the NFL draft makes perfect sense.

In a slightly less climactic announcement, this could be connected to a throwback uniform announcement. Perhaps the return of the bumblebees, or how about those alternates from the 2011 season with the yellow helmets?
