Aaron Rodgers Experiences a Four-Quarterback Room for the First Time

The Pittsburgh Steelers have decided to keep four quarterbacks on their roster, which includes veteran Aaron Rodgers, marking a first for him in his 22nd season. The team opted not to expose Will Howard or Drew Allar to the waiver wire.

Rodgers acknowledged that while having four quarterbacks takes away a roster spot from another position, he believes these players are among the best 53 on the team. The active roster also features Mason Rudolph, making this situation a first for head coach Mike McCarthy.

This season is particularly significant for the Steelers as Rodgers approaches the end of his career, leaving uncertainty about the quarterback position for the future. Both Howard and Allar, who were drafted in 2025 and 2026 respectively, are seen as potential successors. Rodgers expressed confidence in their abilities, noting their comfort and efficiency during training camp.
