I’m a big Will Howard fan but hoping he doesn’t see any action until Aug 2026. If he does then it means that the Steelers have very little hope for the rest of the 2025 season or that we are having one hell of a blowout of the other team which we all know never happens. Other scenario is that we locked up the number 1 playoff seed way early. Yea, right!

 

The blowout only happens if we keep the foot on the gas which we never do. Stupid prevent strategy that gives points away. Arggggghg!

 

Good. He's need to get a much training in with Rodgers.

 

I like Howard as well but like others have said, he doesn't need to see the field, just absorb everything from Rogers.

Woodard sucked... I liked what I saw from Skylar but I think the mix is obvious, Rogers/Rudolph/Howard.

 

who is woodard? do you mean logan woodside?

 

What he said.....

 

Now how could CAIII have a full practice when @Brice said he was heading for IR

 

I have no idea, guess he didn't impress me much...

 

Didn’t someone say Howard needed a 4 year window

 

Being active off the IR means he can be more of a participant in team activity though right? Might not hurt to get some experience in not actual game work but real time practice experience. Some of the backups forced into being starters this year are taking a beating. Jones in SF is one tough sob. Wentz was getting murdered last night and kept getting up.

 

He sucks so bad they don't even know his name.
