Show Notes
The Pittsburgh Steelers are exploring backup plans at quarterback, with Kirk Cousins as their top option if Aaron Rodgers doesnt return. Cousins, a veteran with fourteen years of NFL experience, was released by the Falcons after a four-year, $180 million deal. He threw for over 1,700 yards and ten touchdowns last season. However, former Steelers safety Ryan Clark opposes the move, advocating for the development of sixth-round pick Will Howard and Mason Rudolph as a reliable backup. Howard, a former Ohio State star, showed promise in college, while Cousins is also being considered for a mentoring role by the Las Vegas Raiders. The Steelers decision could significantly impact their push for contention, balancing experience against building for the future.
