The Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback situation remains somewhat in the air less than two weeks before of the 2026 NFL Draft. While it seems like deja vu from 2025, with the heavy expectation being that Aaron Rodgers will join the team at some point this spring/summer. Even so, he is still not on the team. And with OTAs beginning next month, Mason Rudolph and Will Howard will be the two quarterbacks running the show should Rodgers not be present.
Many have labeled the Steelers as a team that will almost certainly take a quarterback in the draft this year, but they don’t feel pressure to do so due to their belief in Will Howard, per Matt Miller of ESPN.

“The Steelers might not have a clear-cut quarterback of the future on the roster, but one internal source said that they won’t be forced to draft one this year,” Miller writes. “That source noted Pittsburgh will play the board first and that Will Howard, last year’s sixth-round pick, has fans in the front office.“
Howard had a lot of buzz in training camp last July before suffering a hand injury that kept him out of preseason play. His name will be one that fans have their eyes on in Latrobe in just a few short months.
