Steelers' Plane Makes Emergency Landing In Kansas City

Sep 25, 2023 8:34 AM

The Pittsburgh Steelers' charter plane from Las Vegas made an emergency landing in Kansas City, Missouri, early Monday morning.

A team spokesperson said on social media that everyone on the plane is safe and that the team is "making necessary plans to arrive back in Pittsburgh later today."

Pittsburgh media outlets reported that the plane landed at KCI Airport at 3:55 a.m. CT because of oil pressure failure in one of the engines. Fire trucks were at the scene inspecting the Airbus A330-900, according to Pittsburgh CBS affiliate KDKA, which had a news crew aboard the plane.

The Steelers were returning to Pittsburgh after Sunday night's 23-18 victory over the Raiders.

49ers' Nick Bosa: 'Purdy Shut Some Haters Up (Today)'

Sep 10, 2023 8:38 PM

 Exactly six months ago, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy underwent surgery on the torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. The Niners and Purdy entered that day uncertain about when the former "Mr. Irrelevant" would return to football and, when he did, how he would fare.

On Sunday at Acrisure Stadium, Purdy offered answers to both questions in San Francisco's resounding 30-7 win against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

"Purdy shut some haters up [today]," defensive end Nick Bosa said. "I think whenever a guy comes back from an injury, people kind of don't expect him to make another leap in the second year, I'm just happy for him. He's exactly who we thought he was."
