Summary

February 23, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 97 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing the start of the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine this week. With Pittsburgh Steelers GM Omar Khan set to have his annual combine media sessions this week, Alex and I go over several questions we hope he gets asked during his multiple interviews while he is in Indianapolis, IN. As for the rest of things related to the NFL's annual scouting combine, Alex and I preview several things we will be looking for throughout this coming week. We go over several position groups and individual players we hope to learn more about throughout the week of the combine activities and interviews. Alex recently completed a draft profile on former North Dakota State QB Cole Payton, so we discuss his initial thoughts on that player ahead of the scouting combine getting underway this week. We also discuss a few other quarterbacks at this year's scouting combine that the Steelers could potentially study more thoroughly. With Steelers S DeShon Elliott coming off a significant injury he sustained during the 2025 season, Alex and I discuss his potential future with the team moving forward past the start of the 2026 league year in March. With Steelers RB Kenneth Gainwell being one of the team's top unrestricted free agents this offseason, Alex and I revisit his dollar value on the heels of the Dallas Cowboys re-signing RB Javonte Williams to a three-year, $24 million contract over the weekend. Later in this episode, Alex and I go over his recent post on the types of players the Steelers should be looking to add to their offseason roster and why. Is there any chance that S Minkah Fitzpatrick lands back with the Steelers this offseason? We address that question later in this show and under the assumption that the Miami Dolphins will ultimately cut Fitzpatrick. This 100-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the above recap and we end thus show by answering several emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.
