Your Depot After Dark for Sept. 1.

RICKY PEARSALL RELEASED FROM HOSPITAL

First-round receiver Ricky Pearsall was injured with a gunshot wound last night after an attempted robbert. We covered the situation yesterday, but it sounds like everything was best-case scenario, all things considered. His mother shared a statement on social media, passed along by Adam Schefter on X, that announced he was released from the hospital. The bullet missed all vitals.

STEELERS GAVE TANK DELL CONFIDENCE

A similar story played out last year when then rookie QB C.J. Stroud had his big breakout performance against the Steelers in Week 4. His 306 passing yards and two touchdowns gave him the confidence he needed to propel him to a record-breaking rookie season.

Tank Dell felt something similar with his touchdown catch in the preseason game this year.

After suffering a gunshot wound earlier in the offseason, Dell told Ryan Clark via The Pivot Podcast that his preseason touchdown was a sign of good things to come.
