The Pittsburgh Steelers are getting deeper into 2026 Training Camp, and some major storylines are beginning to take shape.
In this episode of State of the Steelers, we break down the latest news surrounding first-round pick Max Iheanachor after his injury scare, plus the growing excitement around rookie cornerback Daylen Everette, who is quickly becoming one of the biggest surprises of Steelers camp.
We also dive into the quarterback battle between Mason Rudolph and Will Howard. Reports coming out of training camp suggest Rudolph currently has the edge, while Howard has shown some inconsistency. With rookie Drew Allar also developing behind them, could Will Howard suddenly find himself fighting for more than just the QB2 job?
