Steelers schedule release: Jalen Hurts channels Steeler Nation with schedule release

Jalen Hurts did the Eagles' schedule release video and when he saw the Steelers game, he sounded just like a Pittsburgh fan.

The NFL schedule release is always a spectacle, and this year's edition came with an unexpected twist that had Steelers fans doing a double-take. When the Philadelphia Eagles dropped their 2026 schedule reveal video, starring quarterback Jalen Hurts, one moment stood out—and it wasn't just because of the Week 11 matchup between the Eagles and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

In the video, Hurts opens an envelope to reveal the Steelers as his team's opponent for that week. When asked if Pittsburgh has "ARod"—referring to quarterback Aaron Rodgers—Hurts delivers a response that could have come straight from a Steelers fan forum. With a knowing shrug, he says, "Who knows?" It's a line that perfectly captures the uncertainty and frustration that has defined Pittsburgh's quarterback situation for two straight offseasons.

For those who've followed the Steelers' saga, this moment hits close to home. Pittsburgh has been in a holding pattern, waiting to see if Rodgers will commit to the black and gold for another season. Last year's drama eventually ended with Rodgers signing, but the result was all too familiar: a playoff berth followed by a first-round blowout. It's a cycle that has become the hallmark of Steelers fandom—hope, uncertainty, and ultimately, disappointment.

Hurts' unintentional nod to Steeler Nation went viral, with fans on social media noting that he captured the collective mood of a fanbase that's been through this rodeo before. As the 2026 season approaches, the question remains: will the Steelers finally find their answer at quarterback, or will "Who knows?" become the team's unofficial motto once again? Either way, this schedule release gave everyone a moment to laugh—and maybe cringe—together.
