The Pittsburgh Steelers still don’t know if quarterback Aaron Rodgers will return for his 22nd season in 2026.
If the 42-year-old decides to play, the four-time MVP will lead a team filled with fresh faces on offense.
Pittsburgh used seven of its 10 picks in the NFL draft on that side of the ball.
It’s the first time since 1976 that the Steelers drafted six offensive players among their first seven picks.
Their selections include offensive tackle Max Iheanachor of Arizona State and quarterback Drew Allard of Penn State.
In the final round, the Steelers took Pittsburgh native Eli Heidenreich out of Navy.
