The Pittsburgh Steelers are expected to begin their 2024 season on the road against the Atlanta Falcons, sources tell WSB’s Zach Klein.
That comes on the heels of rumors and speculation from Pittsburgh’s 93.7 The Fan’s Andrew Fillipponi and NFL Network’s Brian Baldinger, who heard that would be the Steelers’ Week One billing.
It would create a “revenge” game not for QB Russell Wilson, who won’t face his former Denver Broncos team out of the gate, but for OC Arthur Smith. Smith served as the Falcons’ head coach from 2021 through 2023 before being fired after this past season.
