Will Howard fell to the sixth-round of the 2025 NFL Draft, but that hasn't stopped Aaron Rodgers from seeing a long NFL career in his future.

Howard has been a fan favorite throughout the early portion of training camp, with the crowd cheering on his accurate throws. There have also been some fans sporting Will Howard Ohio State jerseys, and he has signed a number of them.

Pittsburgh Steelers fans were in attendance for practice on Saturday and there was no doubt who was their favorite player. It was none other than rookie quarterback Will Howard.

Aaron Rodgers is making waves early in training camp by publicly praising rookie Will Howard. The veteran's endorsement sends a strong signal that Howard could be the Steelers' next franchise quarterback.

Jeremiah Moon is an important depth piece at the EDGE position. The Steelers' five-man rotation is strong if DeMarvin Leal can remain healthy, but Moon is on the roster bubble. Coach Tomlin said after practice that he is dealing with a calf injury.
