Will Howard’s Big Night to Prove Himself | NFL News
Description
Will Howard’s got his biggest stage yet Friday night—starting the Steelers’ preseason opener against the Jets. With Aaron Rodgers locked in and rookie Drew Allar impressing, Howard’s performance could determine whether he secures a backup spot or gets squeezed out. He showed flashes in his debut—solid completions, a strong two-minute drill—but admits he needs better ball security and discipline. The coaching staff is pushing him to start faster, while veteran Mason Rudolph remains a looming threat. Allar’s touchdown throws and Rudolph’s efficiency make this QB room tighter than ever. Howard’s focus? Just getting better every day. This game isn’t just about stats—it’s about proving he belongs in Pittsburgh’s future.
