PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers will travel south for their 2024 season opener, heading to Atlanta to take on the Falcons, according to WSB-Channel 2's Zach Klein.

The Steelers were expected to hit the road in Week 1, with rumors of Atlanta and the Denver Broncos being the favorite for their matchup. They'll take on Kirk Cousins and a new coaching regime in their first group for the Falcons.

It'll also bring a matchup against his former team for Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith.
