Steelers rookie Will Howard is throwing again after suffering a fractured pinkie

To start the 2025 season, Steelers rookie QB Will Howard will be on the injured reserve. That’s because the 23-year-old suffered a fractured pinkie during a practice in early August. 

Last season, Howard was the starting QB for the National Champion Ohio State Buckeyes. This weekend, Howard is in Columbus, Ohio, to watch the Buckeyes face the Texas Longhorns. On Friday, Howard appeared on ESPN’s Pat McAfee Show and discussed his current status. He shared that he is back to throwing this week for the Steelers. A step in the right direction for the rookie QB.
