The Pittsburgh Steelers acquired multiple standouts from the 2026 NFL Draft, but one of their young rookies remains unsigned months later.
According to Bob Labriola of Steelers.com, third-round quarterback Drew Allar is the only Steelers draft pick who remains unsigned, which could impact his ability to report to training camp if a deal isn't reached.
"As of this writing, Drew Allar is the Steelers' only remaining unsigned draft pick," Labriola wrote. "Usually, draft picks sign rather quickly, but this one could be different because Allar is a quarterback, and whatever contract he signs as a rookie in 2026 cannot be adjusted upward until the 2028 offseason. Allar has not been forced to miss any of the offseason program because he is an unsigned rookie, but he will not be permitted to report to training camp and participate until he has signed an NFL contract. In my opinion, it would be the height of short-sightedness for Allar to miss any training camp."
Allar, who was selected by the Steelers with the 76th overall pick in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, has a legitimate shot at becoming Aaron Rodgers' successor, if he can fend off Will Howard, that is.
Hopefully, with just around 40 days until training camp, the Steelers can get a deal done with Allar sooner rather than later, as the young quarterback's development would certainly be impacted if he misses any time at Latrobe.
