The Pittsburgh Steelers will not appoint full-season captains for the 2026 NFL season, as announced by new head coach Mike McCarthy. Instead, McCarthy will designate captains on a weekly basis, a practice he previously implemented during his tenures with the Packers and Cowboys.
This decision marks a shift from the previous approach under former coach Mike Tomlin, indicating a change in team dynamics. Last season, the Steelers had four permanent captains, including quarterback Aaron Rodgers and linebacker T.J. Watt, among others.
