With their sights set on Aaron Rodgers, the Pittsburgh Steelers opted not to spend a high draft pick on a quarterback this year. Instead, they waited until the sixth round to take a signal caller, adding Will Howard to their roster. Howard spent the 2024 season at Ohio State, helping them win a National Championship.
Being a Day 3 pick, Howard’s odds at becoming a franchise quarterback are slim. However, Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka, Howard’s 2024 teammate, believes the quarterback will soak up anything Rodgers teaches him.
“From what I hear from Will [Howard], we talk, and apparently Aaron [Rodgers] is pouring into him constantly,” Egbuka said Thursday via 93.
