B79. 🔥 BREAKING: STEELERS STUN NFL — NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP OFFENSIVE MVP JOINS PITTSBURGH QB ROOM! TOMLIN FIRES BACK: “THIS ISN’T A REFRESH — IT’S OUR ANSWER TO THE PRESSURE!” 🏈⚡
The pressure in Pittsburgh has been building for weeks — the inconsistency, the doubt, the national criticism.
But today, Mike Tomlin answered it the Steelers way: with action, not excuses.
In a stunning roster move, the Pittsburgh Steelers have officially activated Will Howard, the Offensive MVP of the College Football Playoff National Championship, adding him to the quarterback room for the first time this season.
And Tomlin didn’t mince words:
“This isn’t just a roster change.
This is our powerful response to the pressure.”
A NATIONAL CHAMPION ENTERS THE SPOTLIGHT
Will Howard — known for his cannon arm, fearless decision-making, and leadership under playoff pressure — has been grinding behind the scenes since training camp.
Now, in Week 11, the Steelers believe it’s time.
According to team officials, Howard will serve as the emergency quarterback for Sunday’s crucial AFC North showdown against the Cincinnati Bengals, sitting behind Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph.
He hasn’t taken an NFL snap yet, but coaches say he’s been one of the most locked-in rookies on the roster:
- Arm strength that pops off the field
- Rapid reads and sharp field awareness
- A calm, commanding presence in the huddle
Tomlin believes that’s exactly the kind of energy Pittsburgh needs right now.
“ONE MAN CAN IGNITE A TEAM” — TOMLIN’S MESSAGE
At Wednesday’s press conference, Tomlin delivered one of his most powerful statements of the season:
“Pittsburgh doesn’t back down. We respond.
Will has earned this. Sometimes it takes just one man willing to ignite — and the whole team changes.”
Those words sent shockwaves through Steelers Nation, fueling speculation about how soon Howard might see the field… and what it signals for the offense moving forward.
MORE ROSTER SHIFTS AS THE SEASON TIGHTENS
The Steelers weren’t done.
Alongside Howard’s activation, the team also made several strategic moves:
✔ Signed CB Asante Samuel Jr. to the practice squad
✔ Released RB Trey Sermon
✔ Released S Darrick Forrest
Pittsburgh is tightening the roster, sharpening the edges, and preparing for the toughest stretch of the season.
THE MESSAGE IS CLEAR: THE FUTURE STARTS NOW
The doubts are loud.
The pressure is real.
The expectations are sky-high.
But the Steelers aren’t hiding from any of it.
They’re answering it — boldly — with the activation of a national champion quarterback who might just hold the spark this team has been waiting for.
If Will Howard seizes this moment…
If he brings even a fraction of the fire he showed in the national title game…
He might ignite something bigger than a roster move.
He might ignite a new era at Heinz Field.
