While the Steelers wait for Aaron Rodgers, all eyes are on Mason Rudolph and Will Howard, their other quarterbacks. Well, the other quarterbacks the average fan cares about, to the chagrin of Skylar Thompson stans. Pittsburgh added both Rudolph and Howard to the roster this year, though with very different histories.
The Steelers originally drafted Mason Rudolph in the third round in 2018, playing here through 2023. He only left in 2024 via free agency, driven largely by their sidebar quest for Russell Wilson. In the sixth round in 2025, the Steelers drafted Will Howard, who won it all with Ohio State last year.
