The Pittsburgh Steelers have long been known for their relatively light travel schedule during the NFL season, and 2026 is no exception. Despite a highly anticipated trip to France, the Steelers will remain one of the league's least-traveled teams, ranking seventh overall with just 14,183 miles this season.
Last year, the Steelers logged 15,062 miles, but that number has dropped significantly in 2026. To put it in perspective, the San Francisco 49ers will cover a staggering 38,105 miles, while the Carolina Panthers enjoy the lightest schedule with only 8,740 miles.
The Steelers' journey to Paris to face the New Orleans Saints marks a historic moment—the first NFL game ever played in France. It follows last season's groundbreaking trip to Ireland, where the Steelers took on the Minnesota Vikings in the league's first-ever game there.
For Steelers fans, this means more time at home and less wear and tear on the team—a definite advantage as they gear up for another competitive season. Whether you're cheering from Acrisure Stadium or following from afar, every mile counts in the quest for glory.
