It's why he was a sixth-round pick – mediocre arm, average at best traits, and poor awareness. The only way Howard will be a Steeler in 2026 is if he re-joins them on the practice squad after getting cut.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Howard's poor awareness and two INTs confirm low ceiling; likely practice squad bound.

The source evaluates Will Howard as a sixth-round pick with mediocre arm talent, average traits, and poor awareness. In Week 2 preseason, he threw two bad interceptions and took a sack by backing directly into pressure despite having ample space to step up or move left—the same lack of awareness seen from Kenny Pickett. The source states this is not a player with a high ceiling and expects Howard will only return to the Steelers on the practice squad after being cut, having solidified Mason Rudolph as the backup to Aaron Rodgers.
