The Pittsburgh Steelers are still waiting to see whether or not Aaron Rodgers will be the starting quarterback in 2026.
In the meantime, the Steelers are exploring options at the QB position ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft, and they hosted Arkansas QB Taylen Green on a visit on Monday.

The expectation for some time has been that Rodgers would make his decision prior to the NFL Draft, so the clock is ticking.
The Steelers have also been linked to Alabama’s Ty Simpson, although they would likely need to select him at No. 21 overall.
Green, on the other hand, is listed as QB7 in the rankings by ESPN expert Mel Kiper Jr., so he projects to be a Day 2 or Day 3 pick.
Green began his career at Boise State before playing the final two seasons at Arkansas, and he is a dual-threat quarterback who could be an intriguing option in this draft class.
The only other QBs currently on the roster in Pittsburgh are Mason Rudolph and Will Howard, so it figures that selecting a signal-caller at some point in the draft is a realistic scenario, even if Rodgers returns to the team in 2026.
