Pittsburgh is set to host the 2026 NFL Draft, and the Steelers’ Dan Rooney is confident it will be a very, very big deal for the city. It is the first time they have had the opportunity to host the event, and they feel well prepared. After all, they have been working on it for years, studying how other host cities manage. And they anticipate quite a turnout, not just for Steelers fans but for the NFL community at large.
“I love the opportunity we have to show off our city”, Rooney said of the Steelers and Pittsburgh hosting the draft, speaking to WTAE.
