Steelers Draft QB Drew Allar 76th Overall as Long-Term Prospect

The Pittsburgh Steelers selected former Penn State quarterback Drew Allar with the 76th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. A former five-star recruit, Allar threw for 3,327 yards in 2024 before an ankle injury limited his 2025 campaign to six games. Despite a dip in draft stock, the Steelers view him as a potential long-term successor at the position. His arrival provides depth and developmental potential, though it remains independent of the team's hopes for Aaron Rodgers' 2026 return.
