Will Howard’s preseason debut was solid, but the Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback room just got a lot more competitive — and his path to staying on the roster just got tougher. Rookie Drew Allar wowed coaches with a 154-yard, three-touchdown performance and earned high praise from head coach Mike McCarthy, who called him a first-round talent. Meanwhile, veteran Mason Rudolph remains the backup favorite, with McCarthy clearly impressed. Howard needs to either outperform Allar or beat Rudolph for the backup spot — a tall order if Allar keeps getting reps. With roster spots limited, Howard’s chances of making the final cut have diminished, even with a strong showing.
