Steelers select five late-round players in 2026 NFL Draft
The Pittsburgh Steelers wrapped up the 2026 NFL Draft, hosted in their hometown, by selecting versatile Navy running back Eli Heidenreich with the 230th overall pick. The Mt. Lebanon native and lifelong fan, likened to former Steelers standout Kenneth Gainwell, joins a crowded backfield featuring Jaylen Warren, Rico Dowdle, and Kaleb Johnson. Earlier in the sixth round, the team picked Notre Dame defensive tackle Gabriel Rubio at No. 210, acquired via trade from the Kansas City Chiefs, to add size to the defensive line suited for the 3-4 defense. In the seventh round, Oklahoma safety Robert Spears-Jennings was chosen at No. 224, bringing elite speed with a 4.32-second 40-yard dash, special teams experience, and multi-role defensive flexibility at 6-foot-1 and 205 pounds. The Steelers had traded down in the fifth round to select Indiana fullback Riley Nowakowski at pick 169, expecting him to serve as a lead blocker on offense and special teams, with running backs coach Ramon Chinyoung excited about his versatility. To address needs at left guard, the team took Iowa offensive lineman Gennings Dunker at No. 96 overall, praising his run-blocking prowess despite limited guard experience after passing on earlier options.

Formula 1 adjusts energy rules ahead of Miami Grand Prix
The FIA, Formula 1 teams, and drivers have finalized changes to the 2026 energy management rules, set to debut at the Miami Grand Prix. These tweaks increase super clipping limits and reduce harvesting caps following concerns from Oliver Bearman's crash in Suzuka, aiming to improve qualifying performance and safety. Adjustments also seek to reduce closing speeds between cars, eliminate unintended overtakes, and enhance race starts and wet weather performance without compromising racing. FIA single-seater director Nikolas Tombazis called the updates an evolution rather than a revolution, with positive feedback from drivers viewing them as a step forward.
