Steelers vs. Browns live score, updates, highlights from NFL 'Thursday Night Football' game

Week 4 of the 2026 season kicks off with a clash between AFC North foes, both of whom are hoping to surge to the top of the divisional standings as we approach the quarter-mark of the season.

The Steelers and Browns have enjoyed vastly different showings in recent campaigns. But both sides have shown signs of life in recent outings, posting identical 2-1 records — albeit in different fashions.

After pedestrian offensive showings in their first two games, Pittsburgh 's attack put forth an impressive display in a 30-27 victory over the Bengals in Week 3, with Aaron Rodgers appearing to turn back the clock to the tune of 292 yards and three touchdowns.

Cleveland , meanwhile, has looked inspired under Todd Monken's appointment to the franchise's head-coaching post. Upset wins over the Buccaneers and Panthers underpin the team's growing confidence, even if there are questions over how it would scale up against some of the NFL's heavyweights.
