The Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Indianapolis Colts 34-22 at Acrisure Stadium, improving their season record to 3-2.

Jaylen Warren led the Steelers' offense with 188 total yards. In addition to his 80-yard receiving touchdown on the opening play, Warren recorded a 50-yard rushing touchdown in the third quarter. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 22 of 31 passes for 235 yards and three touchdowns, including two scoring passes to tight end Pat Freiermuth. During the game, Rodgers reached a historic milestone by recording his 580th career touchdown pass, moving into sole possession of third place on the NFL’s all-time passing touchdowns list, surpassing Peyton Manning.

The Steelers' defense limited Colts running back Jonathan Taylor, who was held to 82 total yards. While the Colts moved the ball effectively between the 20-yard lines, they struggled in the red zone. Indianapolis kicker Spencer Shrader provided much of the team's scoring with five field goals, though the Colts were unable to convert multiple red zone opportunities into touchdowns. Colts quarterback Daniel Jones threw for 267 yards without turnovers, and Tyler Warren added a rushing touchdown for Indianapolis. The Colts' record fell to 2-3 following the loss.
