Steelers Rookie QB Drew Allar Trails in Competition

AutoDraft Pro AI

Rookie quarterback Drew Allar is currently trailing Will Howard in the Pittsburgh Steelers' QB competition, according to feedback from Ben Roethlisberger. Despite being considered a 'perfect match' for coach Mike McCarthy's offense, Allar, the team's third-round pick, has not impressed Roethlisberger, who noted he 'never jumped off the page.' Allar's 2025 season was cut short by an ankle injury. He faces an uphill battle to secure the starting role as the Steelers aim to revitalize their scoring potential.
