Will Howard starting for Steelers vs Jets

Steelers QB Will Howard will start Friday night's preseason game against the Jets. Drew Allar, a 2026 fourth-round pick, will follow him. Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph will not play.

Check for updates on Rodgers' availability and usage as camp progresses.
