The NFL schedule leaks are heating up, and for Pittsburgh Steelers fans, one of the most anticipated matchups of the 2026 season has just been revealed. According to a report from Nick Farabaugh, the Steelers will travel to Cleveland in Week 4 for a Thursday Night Football showdown against their AFC North rival, the Cleveland Browns.

This primetime clash adds another chapter to one of the NFL's oldest and most storied rivalries. In 149 all-time meetings—including three postseason battles—the Steelers hold a commanding 83-65-1 advantage over the Browns. And yes, that record includes a healthy dose of Ben Roethlisberger owning Cleveland over the years.

Looking back at the 2025 season, the Steelers managed to take down the Browns in Week 6, but they couldn't complete the divisional sweep. Cleveland got the last laugh in Week 17, grinding out a gritty 13-6 victory in Pittsburgh. That loss likely still stings, making this 2026 Thursday night rematch even more intriguing.

While a few other Steelers games have leaked ahead of the official schedule release, the full 2026 slate is just around the corner. Fans will soon have a complete picture of the season, including potential primetime slots, bye weeks, and the toughest stretches. For now, circle Week 4 on your calendar—Steelers-Browns under the lights is always a must-watch.
