Pittsburgh is a city built on a blue-collar work ethic. Clocking in early, working long, hard days no matter the time of year, and getting home after sunset. The Pittsburgh Steelers have always aimed to embody the work ethic and grit that define the people of Pittsburgh. It’s why the Steelers moved on from talented players like Diontae Johnson and George Pickens; they lacked the right attitude and singularly focused work ethic. Rookie quarterback Will Howard has it.
Steelers QB coach Tom Arth spoke to the media at minicamp this past week, where he recounted his first time witnessing Will Howard’s work ethic while at Ohio State.
