Steelers Sign Quarterback With Ties to Arthur Smith
The Pittsburgh Steelers have added another quarterback to their roster. The Pittsburgh Steelers are signing veteran quarterback Logan Woodside, head coach Mike Tomlin announced ahead of the team's first preseason game. The news doesn't come as a surprise after sixth-round rookie quarterback Will Howard suffered a fractured bone in his hand that will force him to miss most, if not all, of the preseason. The Steelers likely aren't planning to play 41-year-old quarterback Aaron Rodgers very much over the next few weeks, either. So that would have left Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson as their only quarterbacks left. Woodside gives Pittsburgh some much-needed depth and experience at the position, and it seems like it was an easy decision since he has ties with offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. The two spent a couple of years together with the Tennessee Titans from 2019-20. The 30-year-old began his NFL career as a seventh-round pick by the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2018 NFL Draft. However, he was waived just a few months after signing his rookie contract. Woodside then signed to the practice squad of the Tennessee Titans but was released less than a month later. Struggling to find his footing in the NFL, Woodside turned to the Alliance of American Football (AAF) — a professional American football minor league. He was drafted by the San Antonio Commanders in the third round of the 2019 AAF QB Draft. Woodside had a few good performances, including one where he had a perfect 158.3 rating, but the AAF suspended football operations. That left Woodside looking for another opportunity once again. Luckily, his stint in the AAF caught the attention of the Titans, who he re-signed with in 2019 and would go on to earn two more contracts with. From 2019-21, Woodside served as a backup in Tennessee, completing one pass for seven yards. In 2022, Woodside was signed by the Atlanta Falcons off the Titans practice squad, and then in 2024, he re-signed with the Bengals. He was released in July.

Steelers HC Mike Tomlin remains optimistic about QB Will Howard playing in preseason
Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Will Howard suffered a broken bone in the throwing hand at training camp practice this week. The injury has him in a splint and sidelined with most sources saying he's out for the rest of the preseason. But to be sure, one of those sources is not head coach Mike Tomlin. Tomlin addressed the media on Thursday and when asked if he thought Howard could play in the preseason, Tomlin said, "Certainly," and it's clear he's leaving the light on for him. Howard was the team's sixth-round pick in the 2025 NFL draft and a promising young player who had been showing steady improvement during training camp. To fill in while Howard is out, the Steelers signed veteran Logan Woodside. When asked if he thought Woodside could play this weekend against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Tomlin seemed doubtful he could play on such short notice despite his experience with OC Arthur Smith. The Steelers will take a skeleton crew to Jacksonville this week to take on the Jaguars in their first preseason game of the year.

Steelers waive 2, making room for new signings
The Steelers added veteran quarterback Logan Woodside and former first-round offensive lineman Andrus Peat on Thursday to a full offseason roster. As a result, when Pittsburgh announced the signings, two corresponding cuts had to follow. Per a team announcement, the Steelers have waived long snapper Tucker Addington and offensive guard Nick Broeker ahead of the team's preseason Week 1 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Broeker signed with the Steelers in May, while Addington signed with the team in late June. Following the cuts, Christian Kuntz is the one remaining long snapper on the Steelers. But the offseason roster should remain fluid through the rest of the preseason.
