Your Depot After Dark for June 3.
STEELERS AT IRSAY’S FUNERAL
Unfortunately, the NFL lost one of its most important figures in Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay. He recently passed away, and his loss seemed to affect many in the NFL world. His funeral was held recently, and reportedly, a few important members of the Steelers were in attendance.
According to Pat McAfee on his show on ESPN, Art Rooney II and Omar Khan were at Irsay’s funeral. Irsay has a similar story to Rooney, taking over as owner of an NFL team after his father passed away. It’s nice that Rooney and Khan took time to pay their respects to Irsay. He was a massive part of the NFL, and his loss will be noticeable.
JOINT PRACTICE UPDATE
Within the last few weeks, there have been rumors about the Steelers holding a joint practice with one of their preseason opponents. There were reports that they were working with the Carolina Panthers to hold a joint practice, but that didn’t work out. Now, they’re reportedly trying to hold practices with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
On the Buccaneers’ YouTube channel, Todd Bowles, their head coach, gave an update on any potential joint practice with the Steelers. He stated that they’re still working on it, with nothing being done yet. Therefore, it could still not happen. We’ll see if the Steelers and the Bucs can get something nailed down.
