For a team to draft a quarterback, they have to like the player and the person. For Arthur Smith, he’s all-in on what new QB Will Howard brings. Discussing the pick with the media after Howard became the Pittsburgh Steelers’ sixth-round selection, Smith praised what the team is getting on and off the field.
“Really impressive resume as I’ve gotten to know Will during this process,” Smith told the media via the team’s YouTube channel. “Obviously, he’s played a lot of big games. And when I got a chance to meet with him and spend some time with him at his Pro Day, just came away even more impressed at the person that Will Howard is.
