At this point in the NFL’s offseason cycle, it’s no secret to anyone just how invested the Pittsburgh Steelers are in finding the next franchise quarterback post-Ben Roethlisberger.
Following the 18-year quarterback’s retirement in January, the Steelers officially started the clock on finding the heir apparent, whether that’s through the NFL Draft, free agency, or via trade. Pittsburgh has kept close tabs on the likes of Liberty’s Malik Willis and Pittsburgh’s Kenny Pickett throughout the draft process, and has been connected to the likes of Las Vegas’s Derek Carr, San Francisco’s Jimmy Garoppolo, and Indianapolis’s Carson Wentz in recent trade rumors.
