What happened: Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy met with reporters to discuss the final week of organized team activities and other team matters. The session marked one of the last on-field offseason workouts before the team shifts into its mandatory minicamp window.

Why it matters: The remarks come as McCarthy continues to shape his first full offseason in Pittsburgh, with the staff using the closing OTA practices to evaluate younger players. McCarthy framed the week as one geared largely toward the team's younger generation, per the same OTA stretch that has Aaron Rodgers leading the offense into the McCarthy era.

What to watch: Attention turns to mandatory minicamp, where attendance and depth-chart battles among the younger roster players will draw scrutiny before the summer break ahead of the 2026 season.
