NFL Insider: Browns Lack Starting QB, Steelers Eye Will Howard
Jason La Canfora reports Cleveland has no starting QB, while Pittsburgh may turn to rookie Will Howard soon.
NFL insider Jason La Canfora has shared new insights on quarterback-needy teams, focusing on the Cleveland Browns and the Pittsburgh Steelers. According to an advance scout quoted in the report, the Browns currently do not have a starting-caliber quarterback on their roster, highlighting the team’s ongoing struggle to find stability at the position.
The report also addresses the situation in Pittsburgh, where questions surround veteran Aaron Rodgers. Sources indicate that if Rodgers is benched, suffers an injury, or the season falters, the team could turn to 2025 draft pick Will Howard. A team source noted that head coach Mike Tomlin has a strong affinity for Howard, suggesting he could see playing time sooner than expected.
La Canfora’s analysis comes amid broader NFL trends, as several franchises search for long-term solutions under center. The Browns have cycled through quarterbacks in recent years, while the Steelers are balancing immediate competitiveness with future development.
