Based on the quarterback options the Pittsburgh Steelers are staring down, 41-year-old quarterback Aaron Rodgers or a possible first-round pick are the paths forward this offseason.
That rookie quarterback could be a player like Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart, a guy who has been heavily connected to the Steelers throughout the offseason as they continue to search for an answer at the position.
For NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah, who mocked Dart to the Steelers at No. 21 overall in his latest Mock Draft 3.0, the fit is intriguing because of the similarities that the Ole Miss signal-caller has to Super Bowl-winning quarterback Jalen Hurts, whom current Steelers’ assistant GM Andy Weidl had a hand in drafting in the 2020 NFL Draft.
