For the first time in four years, the Pittsburgh Steelers don’t have a glaring issue at starting quarterback. The comfort of that statement might only last one season, of course. Aaron Rodgers will be 42 years old by season’s end, and while he’s given Steelers fans a ‘maybe’ on his return in 2026, his initial stance that he’d be in Pittsburgh for one last season still looms.
For now, the Steelers feel fairly confident in their quarterback room after completely overhauling it. Mason Rudolph is a comfortable backup option that fans support. Sixth-round pick Will Howard seemed to have won the third-string job before the preseason began.
