Steelers Bet on Four QBs for the Long Haul
Pittsburgh kept four true quarterbacks on its 53-man roster—Aaron Rodgers, Mason Rudolph, Will Howard and Drew Allar—an unusual setup the team intends to carry through the season, according to GM Omar Khan. While the move is feasible in the short term, injuries and roster churn will test it over 18 weeks; historical examples (Jets 2020, Dolphins 2018, Redskins/Raiders/Jets 2013) show four QBs rarely survive an entire season. Pittsburgh is currently healthy aside from DeShon Elliott’s IR stint, but that could complicate the plan when he returns.
