With the release of the 2026 NFL schedule, the Pittsburgh Steelers have a daunting back half of their slate. From Weeks 10-18, eight of the Steelers’ final nine games are against 2025 playoff teams or AFC North opponents who will likely be in the mix for playoff spots in 2026.
Among those 2025 playoff teams is the squad that eliminated Pittsburgh in the playoffs this past January, as the Texans will return to Acrisure Stadium in Week 13, and they won’t be the only ones returning to Pittsburgh.
With
Football Night In America traveling each week, former Steelers head coach and new NBC NFL analyst Mike Tomlin will be in the building when the Steelers host the Texans.
Tomlin stepped down as head coach of the Steelers after 19 seasons following a 30-6 loss in the wild card round to Houston, extending the Steelers’ postseason winless streak to nine seasons.
