Steelers atualizam hierarquia de quarterbacks após treinos de primavera

O Pittsburgh Steelers está dando a Will Howard todas as chances de garantir a posição de quarterback reserva atrás de Aaron Rodgers após os OTAs e o minicamp.

Ray Fittipaldo relatou que Rodgers permanece como o titular claro, enquanto Howard tem sido o consistente número 2 durante as sessões de primavera. A equipe planeja manter esse arranjo durante o training camp, com Howard precisando apresentar um bom desempenho nos jogos de pré-temporada para garantir a vaga.

Fittipaldo observou que os Steelers estão em busca de um possível futuro titular e desejam avaliar Howard de perto neste verão. Mason Rudolph, que possui mais tempo de casa, parece ser o preterido mais uma vez, já que a organização prioriza o desenvolvimento a longo prazo.

O calouro de terceira rodada Drew Allar é visto como uma promessa em desenvolvimento. Fittipaldo espera que ele receba poucas oportunidades na pré-temporada, no que pode ser um ano de aprendizado (redshirt).
