Pittsburgh Steelers rookie QB Will Howard remains on IR, but quarterbacks coach Tom Arth is happy with Howard’s progress while he’s out. Despite suffering a broken finger that caused him to miss the entire preseason, Arth raved about how Howard has handled the setback.
“Will [Howard] has handled the injury as a professional, just as we would expect him to. Really appreciative of our athletic training staff, our strength and conditioning staff. They’ve done a fantastic job working with Will,” Arth said via audio provided by the team. “I think he’s in great shape right now. He’s been in as good a shape as he’s been since he’s been a Pittsburgh Steeler.
