Season 16, Episode 105 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing the Baltimore Ravens reneging on their trade with the Las Vegas Raiders for EDGE Maxx Crosby because of a failed physical. We have quite a bit to say on that topic.

The Ravens have since decided to sign former Cincinnati Bengals EDGE Trey Hendrickson as an unrestricted free agent, so Alex and I obviously have comments on that AFC North transaction.

The Steelers agreed to terms with P Cameron Johnston and S Darnell Savage to cheap one-year contracts on Tuesday, so Alex and I go over the additions of those two players. We also discuss the projected contract numbers for both players.

Alex and I then proceed to discuss the erroneous report on Tuesday night concerning the Steelers agreeing to terms with untendered free agent Dallas Cowboys OL Brock Hoffman. We discuss Jordan Schultz deleting that report and the chances of the Steelers still being able to get Hoffman signed after the start of the new league year.

Steelers DT Cameron Heyward was in the news on Tuesday thanks to him getting a one-year extension from the team. Alex and I go over the finer details related to Heyward's contract extension and how it essentially was just the veteran defensive linemen receiving a $2 million raise for the 2026 season. We also discuss Heyward's 2026 salary cap number decreasing by nearly $5.5 million and why that happened.

While several contract details related to newly signed players have yet to surface, I give a rough estimate at where the Steelers currently sit when it comes to salary cap space based on several educated guesses.

Later in this show, Alex and I discuss where the Steelers currently sit on the 2027 compensatory draft pick standings. We talk about how the Steelers might exit this offseason with just one compensatory draft pick ultimately being awarded to the team a year from now.

This 83-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the above recap and we end this show by answering several emails we received from listeners.
