## Resource

Steelers in quarterback limbo with Rodgers nearing exit, Rudolph underperforming, and young guns Howard and Allar still raw—could Minnesota’s J.J. McCarthy be the answer? The Michigan QB, once a first-round pick and Rodgers’ protégé, might be primed for a fresh start in Pittsburgh, where he could elevate an offense and pair with Allar for a 2027 foundation. With Vikings likely moving on from Murray and McCarthy’s upside still intact, the Steelers may be quietly eyeing a QB who’s ready to rise—or at least, ready to be given the chance.
